I have tried for a month on and off to install Win7 to a HDD with a GPT partition table and can not. I have read numerous. of articles and thread regarding this.
It appears this can't be done with the hardware I have (MB and/or optical drives).
I have come to the conclusion that the problem is with the MB and/or the optical drives telling Win7 to install to a GPT instead of MSDOS. The O/S install program doesn't see whatit needs to to have this happen based on either the optical drive itself and/or the drivers for that drive through the MB.
Is this correct?
The only options in the UEFI BIOS is AHCI on or off and SATA or IDE mode. There are no additional switches.
