Your iMac looks like a 2011 (or older) iMac, but you have APFS. From macOS Terminal, can you post the output
diskutil list
sudo tmutil listlocalsnapshots /
Notice that the last command has a trailing space and "/".

dear Loner,
ok i have already create a partition, but now when the mac reboot i see only the underscore blink.
i have try to reboot and with Alt Button pressed, i have choose EFI Boot.
Now windows installation is started, but now, when i choose the bootcamp partition, he reply me:
in the efi systems it is possible to install windows exclusively in gpt mac
please help me.
thanks in advance
Your specific Mac does not support EFI boot properly. You will need to install using legacy BIOS and and a DVD. USB Installer will cause new issues.
What is the year/model of your Mac (do not post the serial number)?
External DVD will lead to No bootable device errors. Does the built-in Optical drive function properly?
BIOS is an older method of installing Windows. It mimics older disk partitioning model of a MBR disk, by using a Hybrid MBR to overlay the existing GPT.
Using a built-in DVD automatically uses BIOS. If your internal Optical drive does not work, you may want to consider the method in Resolved - Install a Windows 7 partition on Mac OSX without Optical Drive or USB | MacRumors Forums .

Run
sudo tmutil deletelocalsnapshots 2018-09-20-154958
and repeat for all subsequent entries. Once they are deleted, retry BC Assistant.
yes we have a external dvd player with win 8.1 inside.
so what is legacy bios?
the built-in optical drive don't read the dvd (is broken), i'm force to use an external dvd reader.
you can help me to explain the instructions to install windows with legacy bios?
Best regards
Get Paragon VMDK Mounter is legacy product and i can't download, out of stock
You can use VMWare Fusion and it's virtual disk mounter.
i can use virtual box instead of VMWare Fusion?
Yes, Virtual Box should also work.
