Question Unable to install windows 10

[Abbeymovic]

Please am having a serious problem to install windows 10 on my hp elitebook 840 G2 (4Gb RAM, 500Gb HDD). I try to boot in UEFI native with my USB CD ROM it will ask me to boot from CD ROM, but if I press any key it will restart and stuck on hp logo. I try using UEFI hybrid it repeat the same thingng. I perform all these while data execution prevention is enabled. Please you contribution will be appreciated. Thanks.

1. What was the original OS on the unit (Assume Win 8)?
2. Where did you get the Windows 10 ISO?
3. What if you change the Boot Priority to USB first?

Install windows from USB flash drive instead.

BTW windows 10 install doesn't fit on a CD. It is in DVD format.
Not sure, what model is your USB CD ROM. But if it supports CD media only, then DVD media can not be used with it.

The OS on the pc before is windows 7 and have format the windows but unable to install windows 10 due to one MBR and GPT error message. So since it shows this MBR error message am unable to boot into windows 10 installation.
I downloaded it and burn it into CD.
Yes I set the USB generic device as 1st boot on both boot options.

I burn the iso into DVD disk

Did you use the Microsoft Windows Media Creation Tool to burn the DVD disc?

Clean the drive before installing windows onto it. Use diskpart clean method (this wipes all data from the drive).
If you have partition structures already on the disk, that are incompatible with chosen install type, then you get this error.

How do you get that error, if you're not able to boot from installation media?

You may want to check BIOS settings and set secure boot to disabled.

Since I get the error and I restarted the PC, it never boot into USB DVD ROM.
I try using both native and hybrid UEFI, I still can't boot to USB DVD ROM. I enabled Data Execution Prevention, nothing change.

If you can't boot from UDB DVD rom, then use USB flash drive to install windows.

I try to boot now, but it's stuck at windows logo. The DVD ROM is blinking but nothing change on the screen. Just windows logo
