Question win10 install we couldn't create a new partition or locate an existing one

[Luna_4]

I'm trying to install windows 10 on my new system and get this error message, all the fixes I can find online involve going into command prompt and using diskpart to make a new partition. This doesn't work because it changes it from GPT to MBR and since this is a UEFI system MBR won't work

During the windows install you choose advanced and choose to delete all partitions and it will format and reinstall windows

What procedure are you using to install Windows 10?

I tried installing from a bootable USB, after research I found this problem can occur with USB 3.0, which I was using, so I tried booting into Linux and made a small new partition on my empty drive. After that I copied the files from the usb to the new partition and tried installing from the partition to the larger partition on the drive and got the same error

usb 3 has nothing to do with it. try a different stick and use the WINDOWS MEDIA CREATION TOOL to make the usb. follow the instructions listed above. if that doesn't work you have hardware issues.

i have installed windows off usb 3.0 ports all day long on all kinds of computers. just get a cheapo 8GB usb stick and start again.

Tried the creation tool with a new stick and a different drive and the issue persists

Finally figured it out, seems it didn't like that I used Linux to create the partition, got it to work with diskpart this time
