EFI this thing must be a good thing, however, the installation system has become not so simple, do not want to have no brain before.
Install the system under EFI, it is not like the previous partition drop, must repartition, need GPT format
Preparatory work:
1, find a U disk, 4G or more (to put down Win8 installation files), in FAT32 format, format

2, download the original win8 X64 Mirror image (Pro, Enterprise version of God horse All line), EFI does not support 32, so the farewell 32-bit system. 2012-9-14 10:39 Upload

To create a boot partition:
After entering the EFI, actually directly into the installation interface, and the normal installation of the same, here is not to repeat.

Stop at the end of the selection section (because the next step is dimmed)
Press SHIFT+F10 to open the command prompt line:
1. Convert MBR disks to GPT disks
Type
DiskPart
Open the DiskPart tool
Select Target Disk
List disk--------------------lists the disks that the system has
Select Disk 0--------------Choose number No. 0 (please determine your target disk according to disk size)
2, empty the target disk, and convert to GPT format
Clean-------------------------Erase the disk, the command erases all data on the disk (note backup important data before) 2012-9-14 10:36 upload the download attachment ( 187.31 KB)
Convert GPT------------------converting disks to GPT format
List partition-----------------list the partitions on the disk because we have just converted to GPT format, so the partition is empty
3. Set up EFI partition and system installation partition
create partition EFI size=200---------------set up an EFI partition with a size of 200M
create partition MSR size=128--------------set up the MSR partition, Microsoft defaults to build, the size is 128M
Create partition primary size=51200-------set up the primary partition, size 50G, adjusted for its own needs, this partition is used to install Win8
List partition---------------------------------list the partitions on the disk 2012-9-14 10:38 upload
PS: In fact, a DiskPart tool can almost replace other third-party disk tools, most of the hard disk partitioning tool is unable to change the GPT format disk partition ID, but DiskPart can.
Install Win8:
Close command prompt, point refresh

Then there's the long Wait (skip)

The wood has a win8 sign.
Getting into the system is still the same.

Finish
Add: There is another way, is to change the UEFI to legacy, as before the traditional installation of the same system.
