Installing Windows 8 on a GPT disk in UEFI

Hey!
I'm trying to install Windows 8 in UEFI mode. They say it loads incredibly fast, well, it's just interesting.
It just doesn't work.

What I do:
I deleted all partitions from the HDD. I boot from a flash drive with a program created that checks the compatibility of the computer with Win 8.
In bios, you can choose two UEFI boot options: my flash drive, or just my flash drive. Ok, I choose UEFI.
I create a section, 3 more additional sections are automatically created.
The installation successfully reaches the first reboot.
I'm waiting for a reboot.
Then, for a fraction of a second, the win 8 blue logo appears, after which the computer restarts again. This happens several times, after which windows reports that it cannot boot and that it needs to be restored.
Error 0xc000001 (cool, the very first error!)

Motherboard: Asus p8z68-v, bios settings reset to default. The BIOS has been updated to the latest version.
Just in case, I tried to disable the second screw with Ubuntu. No changes.

Vopschem I'm at a loss, I don't even have any ideas what can be done.

Google says that you most likely have a broken image recorded. Try re-creating a bootable flash drive using the Windows 7 USB/DVD download tool .

I was never able to put Windows in UEFI from a flash drive (although I suffered with Windows 7 x64). There were no problems with the disk.

I also had some errors during installation, it helped at the very beginning of the installation to press shift + f10 -
in cmd we type diskpart
list disk
select disk # (#= disk number where Windows is installed)
clean
convert gpt
exit
exit
After that we put Windows.
PS I installed from a flash drive created by Windows 7 USB/DVD download tool

I’ll tell you a similar story: I have a Lenovo C 260 monoblock with an x64 processor, initially Windows 8.0 was installed, the disk is divided into 3 parts, the Windows recovery area, firewood and the C drive itself. changed the login password and through some account that they don’t remember. What I just didn’t do was try to remember at first with the children, then I decided to hack this account, but I stopped and decided to just reinstall it and in general everything demolished all three partitions to zero. Having experience of installing Windows 7 USB / DVD download tool from flash drives of different categories on different devices with the help of this Windows 7 USB / DVD download tool, I spent 3 nights looking for a solution in the thorns of the Internet. found!!!
I state: I found the sitesewin.net/soft/windows/page,1,4,294-windows-81-32-bit-torrent.html, respectively, I found a suitable Windows and an activator for it, I found a program for preparing a flash drive for Windows rufus-2.11.995 I don’t remember which site but it’s all free and without hemorrhoids: in general, in Rufus: 1. I chose the partition scheme and type of the MBR system interface for computers with BIOS or UEFI (attention I quote the program as everything is written there in Russian) 2. The NTFS file system 3. further below there are three checkmarks without checking select the ISO image that we download from the site indicated above (by the way, you can find a lot more on it and there is also a video instruction on how to slowly install Windows 8.1 from a USB flash drive, though there without its preparation, well, in principle, who already has some experience to handle if not, write I will answer and help in any way I can) Well, that's not all: then I stick the flash prepared in Rufus into the monoblock, I load the BIOS via F1 for me like this (I don’t know how I haven’t tried it on others :)) in the BIOS, boot from the USB flash drive in the startup-primary boot sequence section and also in the startup section on the boot priority tab, set Legacy first , then in the devices-Ata Drive setup-Sata mode section, set AHCI mode, press F 10- ok, three dots appear in the preload, press enter, and so on, as a result, we have installed 32-bit Windows 8.1, then activate it from the same site with an activator, first, of course, we turn off any unnecessary nonsense in Windows when it is configured before the first start, that's all !!!! I hope I didn't bore you too much, but if so, I'm sorry! yes, I almost forgot respect to the guy All3 )) in the BIOS, boot from a flash drive in the startup-primary boot sequence section and also in the startup section on the boot priority tab, set Legacy first, then in the devices-Ata Drive setup-Sata mode section, set AHCI mode, press F 10- ok, in preload three dots appear, press enter, and so on, as a result, we have an installed 32-bit Windows 8.1, then from the same site we activate it with an activator, first, of course, we turn off any unnecessary nonsense in Windows when it is configured before the first launch, that's all !!!! I hope I didn't bore you too much, but if so, I'm sorry! yes, I almost forgot respect to the guy All3 )) in the BIOS, boot from a flash drive in the startup-primary boot sequence section and also in the startup section on the boot priority tab, set Legacy first, then in the devices-Ata Drive setup-Sata mode section, set AHCI mode, press F 10- ok, in preload three dots appear, press enter, and so on, as a result, we have an installed 32-bit Windows 8.1, then from the same site we activate it with an activator, first, of course, we turn off any unnecessary nonsense in Windows when it is configured before the first launch, that's all !!!!

at the very beginning of the installation (when you select partitions) press shift + f10 -
in cmd we type diskpart
list disk
select disk # (# = disk number where Windows is installed)
clean
convert gpt
exit
exit
(then you will have to, of course, as in my case, re-create section, but I understand that the GPT system has already been applied, in general, everything worked out for me)
After that, we put Windows.
