"Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk is of the GPT partition style" FIX!!!

If you are trying to downgrade from Windows 8 to Windows 7, you may run into the issue above. Here is how to fix it.

Boot computer to the Windows 7 installation disk.

At the main screen type "Shift" "F10" (my may need to type "fn" "shift" "F10" with some computers"

A command prompt will open

type diskpart and hit enter

type list disk and hit enter (it should tell you the disks on your system and their number. Default is 0)

type select disk 0 (or the number you found in the above step. 0 is just the default) and hit enter

type clean and hit enter

You should now be able to install Windows 7 without any problems!

Please comment if this helped you. Thanks!
