Hi HKDuffman
Please make sure that the system meets the below requirements.
- There should be a maximum of three primary partitions in the MBR partition table
- You should not have any extended/logical partition, all three partitions must be primary partitions.
- If you have more than three partitions, you must delete the least important partitions after backing up the important data.
- You must have 1 system partition (OS).
- You must have an active partition.
I hope the above information could be helpful for you, please do not hesitate to contact me for any further assistance, I will welcome the questions you may have.
