Product: HP 15-AY019NJ Y6H57EA

I just bought an new hp laptop without an OS.

I started installing Windows 7 but it says I need to convert the drive to GPT.

I know how to do it with the diskpart command but It means I will delete the hp partition.

Is it OK to do so?

 

Thanks :generic:

Hi,


No problem, you can continue. There is no HP recovery partition (only for Windows OS) in your hard drive. It came with Free Dos 2.0
