Windows 10: Windows 10 installation issue: GPT

Hi


I've a MSI GE62 laptop and I want to reinstall windows 10 on it. I'm using GPT and created a new GPT partition using diskpart:

Diskpart

Select disk 0

Clean

Convert GPT

Exit



Aftewards as I try to install windows and try selecting the primary partition (in my case it's drive0 partition 4) it gives the following error:



We couldn't create a new partition or locate an existing one.




I found some solutions over net for resolving this problem by changing gpt to mbr, but that also didn't work in my case.



Request someone please help.

Thanks.

:)

 

New install Windows 10 (issue solved)

It's good that you're not experiencing any issues. Unfortunately many folks are, a quick Google search will show the same info im offering the OP.

Heres a couple examples:

It's basically what I mentioned above, small issues here and there ,but nothing to end your day.. for the most part.

I know it's anecdotal, but for my experience 95% of the time it's perfectly fine. The issues I've run into wouldn't be enough for me to roll back , but they would be enough (had I not installed it yet) ,to avoid it for another couple weeks which is why I'm suggesting it to the OP
