GPT; MBR Partition Issue (Windows 7)

In general, the problem is that when installing Windows 7, the Asus X502C laptop knocks out an error that there is an MBR table on this disk and for UEFI systems you need a GPT partition. In general, a strange situation is usually after Windows 8 to install 7-ku is problematic, since on the contrary you need an MBR disk. Who knows what the problem is, tell me.

Try changing the boot mode from UEFI to Legacy in the BIOS if you want to keep the MBR. Or reformat the disk completely in GPT with the DISKPART command via the command line when installing Windows, if you want GPT.

You can simply remove the volume and install the system to unallocated space, GPT will be created automatically during the installation process.

Thanks guys, it was in the BIOS. Such cuts, inconvenient BIOSes just enrage in laptops.
