  2. Disk Management

    Hi Keith,

    Thanks for providing the detail that was requested previously. Since the disk management screen that you saw is showing greyed out options, we suggest that you follow the steps below to change the partition type of your internal drive:

    • Open Disk Management then right click the partition on the disk you want to covert and select Delete Volume.
    • Once you complete the process you will see the whole disk shown as two separate unallocated spaces. Right-click the disk and select Convert to GPT disk.

    After the conversion, you will be able to use the whole disk and then you can create new separate partitions.

    We look forward to your response to our queries.

    MBR to GPT conversion for boot disk - failing

    Found this:

    Modify the Disk Signature using Disk Management

    You can follow these steps to do the job:

    1. Press Windows + R to open Run.
    2. Type msc into the search box and press Enter to open Disk Management.
    3. Right-click on the offline disk and select Online from the popup menu.

    Then, Windows will appoint a new disk signature for the drive..

    I'll try that to see if it works. If not I'll use diskpart. Looks like it can be any hexadecimal number for MBR and GUID for GPT. So the number you used: set id=DE94BBA4-06D1-4D40-A16A-BFD50179D6AC override is random or you copied it from some where or what?
