You need to remove the Windows installation from your laptop before reinstalling Linux. Usually, you can use the Disk Management or Disk Utility to delete the Windows partition and then proceed with the Linux installation. If you're unsure, check your laptop's manufacturer support for specific steps.

Windows doesn't recognize Linux partitions because it can't read ext2/3/4 formats. You can reinstall your drive using the Linux installer.

It's not possible for Windows and Linux to share the same drive partition. Windows won't display Linux partitions unless you use a partitioning utility.

It seems odd that Disk Utility displays the NTFS Windows partition as the entire drive. Would GParted reveal its true layout?

Gparted should function correctly. Execute it from a live CD/USB drive.

Delete all partitions or use the standard command to remove everything from root.
