Q: Installing Windows 10 On Macbook Pro Problem
Hey guys, so with everybody jumping on windows 10 on macbooks bandwagon, I decided to join the club myself.
After 2 hours of tinkering of setting up the bootable flashdrive - I was finally able to do it and bootcamp assistant finally started doing his job. At the point where it tells me to decide how much I want to allocate to the partition I chose 200gb (out of 500 GB Drive).
Shortly after it finished the process, my macbook rebooted and first went to a black/dark gray screen.
After doing a bit of research I rebooted the machine, and pressing down option, went into the EFI install mode of windows 10.
After skipping the serial step and choosing windows 10 home, it popped out a bunch of drives, none of them were usable - the error read.
"Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk has an MBR partition table. On EFI systems, Windows can only be installed to GPT disks".
I was wondering what is the best way of bypassing this?
I read from someone is to delete the partition created by bootcamp and make one from disk utility? - but if that is the case what format should it be in?
Any other suggestions/solutions?
Thank you.
MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2012), OS X Yosemite (10.10.4)
