    During setup select custom install. Then juts delete all partitions and install into the unallocated space. Windows 10 should set it up in GPT automatically if your doing a UEFI install.

    I've upgraded 2 PC to 1703 as I type this. Windows 10 Creators Update available through the Update Assistant

    Oh dear. Although I did select "Custom Install" during setup, I see that in the BIOS that I had an OS mode of "CSM and UEFI OS" selected in my BIOS. Either way if I right click on the C: drive it says the my file system is NTFS, not GPT.

    Do you think it would be worth my re-installing Windows (at this point it wouldn't take THAT long) in order to get the file system into GPT?

    Drivers needed for a Samsung mSATA 512GB SSD (PM841 ??)

    New problem.

    OK I have updated the BIOS to UEFI and have reinstalled Windows 10 using my Windows 10 Recovery disk. The Disk Management Tool says that I have GUID Partition Table (GPT) on my main partition table.

    However Windows is now failing to update at all!


    UPDATE: I have manually uninstalled "Security Update for Microsoft Windows (KB3200970)" and now all sorts of things are downloading including Windows Defender, "Cumulative Update for Windows 10 version 1607" etc. So I think I have solved the problem. But slightly odd that it managed to get stick where it did.
