Windows can't be installed on Drive Partition

I am using Boot Camp to install Windows 8.1 on second partition. All seemed fine when it was adding the second partition so I went off to take care of some other work. I came back to see a black screen, then the little blue window for Windows 8 and I thought I was off to the races until I got here:

None of the partitions can be selected. If you can help with a solution I would greatly appreciate it.

I chose to "Format" the BOOTCAMP partition and this led to the installation. It was a long process but I'm up and running.
