You followed a tutorial but encountered issues with your PC. You needed to install a 4TB hard disk and faced problems creating a basic volume, realizing it was related to the MBR rather than the GPT format. Windows couldn't recognize it, and you couldn't complete the installation. You tried a BIOS switch to UEFI, which slowed down the system and caused programs to run offline. You attempted a BIOS reset but didn't see any changes. Now you're unsure what to do next.

Did you switch the drive to a GPT format after booting in Legacy?

The system is not allowing you to delete the volume on the C drive, only the system can handle it.

I tried to fix it but it didn’t work. I made my PC slow and then switched to UEFI, but things still started working offline. Have you seen the video or any tips on this?

You might be able to set drive letters for those partitions.
