It's impossible to install Windows into a GPT partition if the firmware isn't EFI. This is a limitation artificially set by Microsoft; here's Microsoft's FAQ on this. http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/hardware/gg463525.aspx In this case, you must either revert to an msdos partition table (can be done w/o data loss IIRC), or trick Windows into believing it's running on EFI, i.e. set up UEFI DUET. Google that and you'll find an excellent HOWTO on this. Happy hacking~
