    So would running G-Parted help the O.P. ?

    Agree this would resolve this problem. If the computer is set for UEFI and he wants to install 64 bit then a GPT hard drive is required. The installed will take care of that if you give it a empty, un-partitioned drive to start with (which you can do during the install) . No need for any partitioning software.

    His disk is setup as raid..
    He does need to Upgrade the current OS to get windows 10 activation
    Not sure it is a partition issue or efi issue because based on the disk detail there are more then 4 primary partitions and two of the partitions are Fat32

    either way the error is stated to read > "........cannot be installed on USB flash drive."

    So my thinking is something to do with Raid Setup or the Disk Controller settings in Bios
