    Windows 8 Pro Won't Install on My Disk


    Ok. I did something stupid yesterday.
    I just purchased a laptop for the firs time. It;s an ASUS.
    After upgrade to Windows 1803, I used my partition manager to remove the recovery partition.
    While I was there, I removed another partition and the laptop instantly shut down and botted to the BIOS.
    Wans; sure wht to do so I formatted the drive as NTFS. The system boots to my Wondows 8 Pro disk bu setrup tells me:
    "Windows cannot be installed on this disk. The selected disk has an MBR partition table. On EFI systems WIndows con only be installed to GPT disks."

    Is there anything I can do, or am I out $320??


    Any help will be appreciated,

    James *Redface
