It didn't wipe. The HDD appears to be locked. Did you get any error messages when entering the diskpart commands? We may have to set the command prompt to the elevated adminstrator mode. Jack E/NJ

No I never got any errors. But I do remember that it kept saying that the ***** is write or read protected or something along the lines of that. It said because it’s ntfs??JackE said:It didn't wipe.

OK. Boot from the USB installation stick again. At the Windows setup menu, press Shift+F10 keys. The elevated command prompt should appear. Now start diskpart again and enter these commands. If you get any error messages, like read/write protection stop and report back. The last command 'list volume' should now show a clean disk.

Did you have to use a BIOS supervisor password to enter the BIOS menu and turn it off? Jack E/NJ

Please!!! NO!!!!! That's not how secure boot is turned off. The BIOS must be set, saved and exited in UEFI mode only. Then you must re-enter the BIOS menu to set, save and exit a supervisor password in the Security tab. Then you must re-enter the BIOS menu using the supervisor password. Only then can you turn off secure boot Jack E/NJ

Please don't try to set Legacy mode or you risk losing everything on or irreparably corrupting the HDD (or SSD). So I must now ask if you ever tried boot the USB Win10 installation pendrive when the BIOS was set to Legacy mode? Jack E/NJ
