Hey! I see the issue. Your setup requires using GOT partitions for Windows installation, but you're in "LEGACY+UEFI" mode. You'll need to switch to UEFI mode or use a different partition type to proceed. Let me know if you need help with that!

Remove current partitions, set up a fresh one, and let Windows install automatically.

There are specific formatting rules and options available. Formatting an existing partition on a drive that uses MBR can cause issues during the GPT process. Clearing all partitions and starting fresh—especially if the installation used GPT with UEFI—will likely result in successful creation of new partitions and proper GPT formatting.

It was only a single partition during formatting. Should I create a partition first, then install the driver? The installation wizard doesn’t let me select new partitions.

Use MiniTool Partition Wizard to convert MBR to GPT format.
