How to convert GPT to MBR outside Windows ?
Hello everyone,
I have an Asus K95VJ-YZ003D laptop which I want to install Win7 on. Actually, I already did install it, but to my surprise I was shocked to see it partitioned my 1TB HDD to GPT style instead of MBR. There's no option to format MBR or GPT when you install Windows, so I can't select what I want... it simply formats it how he wants and I don't want GPT (I have my reasons).
I checked and I have EFI BIOS... I read that this might be the problem, although I'm not sure. Can you guys help to enter in something like diskpart (only OUTSIDE Windows) in order to be able to delete all partitions and convert them to MBR?
I read something like "from your BIOS select to boot the Windows DVD without UEFI, press and hold SHIFT and then press F10 to enter diskpart". I did select to boot the Windows DVD without UEFI, but I don't understand when I should press and hold SHIFT, then F10.
