Reinstall windows 10 in UEFI mode
Do hard drives need a GUID partition table (GPT) to boot in UEFI mode?How do I install Windows 7 32-bit on a UEFI-based system?Installing Ubuntu 12.04 x64 in MBRWhy can't I install Windows 8 on an UEFI machine from an MBR based USB disk?Normal ISO to UEFI bootable ISO converter?Make Windows bootable in both UEFI and Legacy mode?Why isn't my system booting in UEFI mode?Can Windows 10 have a partition type of GPT with a UEFI boot mode?Can only install Windows 7 in UEFI-Legacy ModeNot reaching Windows Boot Manage on UEFI boot mode whereas EFI partition is present
Yesterday I installed windows 10 from a bootable USB (which contains a folder named efi
so I think this bootable USB support both boot modes). But later I learned that UEFI mode is better than legacy (BIOS) mode. So I first confirmed which boot mode I am in by typing msinfo32
in run dialog and it display legacy
.
I also checked my hard disk partition style, its MBR. I know I would need to convert to GPT partition style before I install windows 10 in UEFI mode.
But I don't want to use third party softwares and I also don't want to update to windows creator update probably because windows update takes lot of time and data also all of the third party softwares are paid. So I tried doing it with diskpart utility by booting from bootable USB and opened up cmd in the repair windows and typed these commands:
X:Sources> diskpart
X:Sources> list disk
X:Sources> select disk 0 (as my hdd was disk 0)
X:Sources> convert gpt
But it says error disk is not convertible.
So how would I reinstall windows in UEFI mode ? Any help would highly appreciated.
