It's ok, I fixed it.In the setup screen, I hit Shift+F10 and then accessed diskpart to clean the partition. All sorted now.
Hey everyone, I'm pretty knowledgeable when it comes to this sort of stuff, but I'm totally stumped here. I have an Inspiron 15 3537 which came preinstalled with Win8. I hate it so I want to install Win7.My first issue was that the laptop wouldn't boot my Win7 DVD but after doing some reading, I read that I had to disable UEFI/enable Legacy - which worked. However now that I've formatted the laptop HDD, I can't choose the partition on which I wish to install Windows. I get an error message that says something like "Can't install on this partition as it is GPT" or something like that.I did some reading up on that issue and it seems as though I need to have UEFI enabled, but if it's enabled I can't boot the DVD. Someone pleeeeaaaase help!
