I tried to convert disk to gpt

[golden jackal]

boot to bios/uefi settings and show the boot order configuration

this is currently trying to use network boot, and is not actually booting from your windows disk

[gleaming mirage]

Well the boot order first is the windows disk

[golden jackal]

What's next in the boot order?

things behave a little differently in the UEFI/GPT land

[golden jackal]

does your laptop even support UEFI?

[gleaming mirage]

I don't think so

[golden jackal]

try seeing if you have CSM or Legacy mode or something similar

disable that and restart

[gleaming mirage]

No

[golden jackal]

so there's no mention of UEFI anywhere in there?

[gleaming mirage]

No

[golden jackal]

booting a GPT disk requires UEFI to be supported...

did the conversion succeed or did it fail part way through?

[gleaming mirage]

It blue screened when I pressed the button

It might have been before even

Maybe the drive failed

[golden jackal]

the drive is clearly recognised

[gleaming mirage]

Well okay

I'm not even sure it started converting

Cause it bsod so fast

[golden jackal]

do you have another working PC or a Windows installer USB

[gleaming mirage]

I have a phone

And a USB

[golden jackal]

won't be of much help

[gleaming mirage]

I can make a bootable USB in android

[golden jackal]

why were you even trying to convert to GPT, what guide were you following, etc.

[golden jackal]

if you could make a bootable windows usb, that would be really helpful

[gleaming mirage]

I got an error and followed a guide from the program's developers

[gleaming mirage]

Well

It's just really slow

[golden jackal]

wait windows 7??? you're telling me this thing has windows 7

[gleaming mirage]

Do you really think that something that doesn't have uefi can do windows 10

It's already pushing it with windows 7

[golden jackal]

I mean I had Windows 11 running on a "Windows XP certified" machine (albeit it was a thinkpad)

[gleaming mirage]

Even though the laptop looks like a 2016 laptop

It's way older

[golden jackal]

do you have any important data on there?

[gleaming mirage]

This thing struggles to play 480p video

[gleaming mirage]

Yes

I got a guide from another person from here

[golden jackal]

would you be okay with doing a clean reinstall after copying your data over?

[gleaming mirage]

To install a newer version of windows?

[golden jackal]

nah to delete everything and start over

[gleaming mirage]

Well there is about 40gb of old updates on the drive so yee probably

I wanted to dual boot Linux
I did it before with a similar machine

Two actually

But those weren't really important
