Hey guys, my hard drive has to be in GPT so it uses the full 3TB. When I installed windows it said it couldn't because of the GPT format. I have an Asus P8Z77-V LX Motherboard if that helps at all. I you need any more information just ask. Thanks

Im not totally sure what the deal is with Windows supporting GPT, however does the installation utility allow you to create one partition for the system and use the other partition for data such as music etc?

EDIT: from what i can see on the MSDN site, Windows is only compatible on 64-bit only systems on UEFI systems.
