Windows 10: Should I select Delete Boot Portion?

Should I select Delete Boot Option to get out of BIOS Utility - Advanced Mode?

confused about selecting boot device


This is good information but I am confused about step 2 below. Wouldn't I need to select whatever device, USB or DVD, the install media is on at this point and not how I want the final install to boot?
Thanks,and sorry for dragging up an old post but it had most of the info I was looking for.

It is up to you whether you want to install Windows using MBR or GPT and you need to set the option in the BIOS for MBR or GPT style installation.

Having said that. Here's the steps:

1. Disconnect all HD/SSD except the one you will be installing Windows
2. From the boot menu, Select #1 for GPT or select #2 for MBR to boot up the Windows Installation
   Attachment 29081
   NOTE: The screen is an example and might look different from yours
3. Once the Windows Installation started. On the first screen, Press and hold SHIFT Key + F10, a command Windows will popup then type:
   - diskpart
   - select disk 0
   - Clean
   - Exit
   - Exit
4. Click Next to continue.
5. Select Custom
6. Select the first unallocated partition and click next. Windows will create all needed partitions to install Windows 10
7. Follow all the rest of the instruction to complete.

MBR installation:

1. 500MB System Reserved partition
2. C: Drive

GPT installation:

1. 450MB recovery partition
2. 100MB EFI System Partition
3. 16MB MSR partition
4. C drive.

laptop doesnt boot automatically

This is what happened.

1. Did a repair install and later disabled hibertnate in CMD.
2. Enabled legacy option ROM in BIOS.
3. After a few times startup ( i used the system in such mode for 5 days), changed boot option back to default.
4. Vola!! It boots automatically to win10 without any keypress. Tested it with many starts to confirm the same.
5. Re-enabled hibernate option using CMD and later selected Fast Startup.
6. System booted normally, without the need for any keypress.

I do not know exactly whether such steps resolved the problem or what else happened, hence cannot suggest above steps.

Many thanks to all members who helped to troubleshoot problems.
