GPT Hard drive issues with installing Windows 7 Ultimate..

[DrWolfenstein]

1) Bad disc burn, remake disc.

2) uEFI/BIOS firmware not set to boot uEFI CD/DVD's.

Redone the disc worked and it did boot yes

As the System Repair Disc is booting in uEFI mode,
Your Windows 7 x64 DVD has no uEFI support.

thats the error i had when trying to install from the disc

Yeah and this disc is genuine as you've seen i have posted a picture of the box an so on...
Right i've just retried doing the install with the windows disc and i'm at the first installer, so i'm going to go through the clean install section and report back. fingers crossed!

Is this in UEFI or bypassing UEFI?

Let us know how it goes, hopefully with a Disk Mgmt screenshot to celebrate!
