Hello everyone.

I want to install Windows 10 on an SSD (GPT drive) and I have already failed it in a way.

The thing is that if there is no EFI partition on a disk (it doesn't have any partitions at all), the windows installer won't create the 100 mb efi partition when I choose the disk, thus it won't boot up, as it has no efi partition.

Making the disk gpt again via diskpart has no effect.

(select disk 1

clean

convert gpt

exit)

What has an effect though is creating a efi partition.

(create partition efi size=100

format quick fs=fat32)

But the problem is that after that windows automatically creates another 100 mb efi partition, so there are 2 of them.

I would have tried just installing that, but something tells me that this won't work.

I hope some of you actually encountered such situation and you can tell me how to deal with it.

Thanks in advance.
