[QUOTE="JohnLuelf, post: 1774755, member: 396398"] UPDATE: After doing a little bit of reading on various forums and guides I came across a tool called GPT fdisk which allowed me to (after booting into recovery mode and disabling SIP), convert from Hybrid-MBR to purely GPT. I then rebooted into EFI Boot and the installation ran flawlessly. The computer restarted, and thats when I hit the next issue: Windows gives me a BSOD with the error "System thread exception not handled: igdkmd64.sys." At wits end, I googled the issue to come to the conclusion that this is an IntelHD graphics driver error. A person on Apple's community forums had given a workaround for this, by removing anything related to the driver on the USB created by BCA. This forces the Windows Installer to revert to a generic display driver, which seems to work well for the time being (Let me fully finish the installation process). The issue now is that since I ran in EFI mode instead of MBR/BIOS, the Cirrus audio driver does not seem to be exposed properly, so I'm left with no audio. Any suggestions would be great! [/QUOTE]
