Hi,
My laptop very suddenly died on me and I need help accurately diagnosing the problem because I'm a wee bit confused by the evidence.
It is a Asus Zenbook UX301LA, which has two 128GB SSD disks, and maybe a RAID system but I'm not too sure about that.
I've put a Windows 10 ISO on to a USB Flash drive. None of the repair options work. However, the image I've uploaded to TinyPic, I think, is telling me the first SSD drive is dead, but I don't understand what to make of the RAID system which is 'Normal' and 'Bootable', because I can't boot in to anything.
When i attempted to write over the drive and reinstall Windows 10 from the USB ISO (I don't need to save any data), I got the following message that prevented me from proceeding:
'Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk is of the GPT partition style'
If the SSD is dead, and it will allow me to buy and install a new one, I'd happily do that. But I don't understand what the GPT issue is and I'm worried I'll encounter another problem if I were to buy a new SSD.
Any advise on what I can look at here to resolve this? I know I may have to attempt several things before resolving it.
Here is the image again because it disappeared:
Many thanks
