Hello guys.
It's the first time I install Ubuntu before windows and thats why I failed so much so I need your help.
I have 64bit Ubuntu 12.10 and I left some space to add Windows 8 later. The time for Windows came and I put the bootable USB stick to install it, but get stuck - choosing any partition, including ntfs one, return this message:
"windows cannot be installed on this disk. The selected disk is of the GPT partition style."
I've googled it for some info, but all I understand is that I have partition table that Windows does not like and support. One solution would be to backup entire data, install Windows and then restore my Ubuntu, but I think there should be easier way.
There is my partition table:

Thanks in advance.
