I created my own PC and decided to install Windows XP because I had an XP 7 upgrade, but it didn’t work. I bought a Windows 7 disc and tried to install it, but the system says it can’t install because the disk has a GPT partition style. What should I do next?

You can easily change the drive using the Windows installer, otherwise you’ll need to transfer the HDD to another computer and reset it.
