Windows 7/8 GPT Partitioning an SSD

Remove all other disks
1. Boot into Windows Setup and hit Shift+F10 to open a command prompt.
2. >Diskpart
3. >List Disk
4. >Select Disk #
5. >Clean
6. >Convert GPT
7. >Exit

Continue with setup.

NB. Windows Boot Manager is stored in CMOS so when you clear CMOS, you may not be able to boot into Windows. Boot from Media and 'Repair my Computer' (even though nothing's wrong with the OS) this will restore WBM.
