mb boss
U r prob aware of the slight risk this poses right?
Even tho it should work properly as ur pc isn't that old
wym
There is a chance that the boot manager will get corrupted and windows will need to be reinstalled. It only happens in older systems tho
We are talking like 10 or more years old
But still it is recommended to have a usb with a windows installation on it
what about the data?
U will most probably not need it tho
Tbh it should be good
It has never happened with newer systems like urs
Do u want to proceed?
okay lets do it
Open cmd as admin
okay
Type this command and show result
mbr2gpt.exe /validate /disk:0 /allowFullOS
successful
I need to see the whole thing
