Convert GPT disk to MBR disk with EaseUS Partition Master
EaseUS Partition Master can directly convert GPT disk to MBR disk without any data loss (hard disk with system installed is not supported). You can also use EaseUS free partition software to solve other partitions cases such as to move gpt partition, partition gpt disk etc. Compared to Disk management and command prompt, it won't require to deleted disk volumes. Therefore, it is the safest and the most reliable way.

or convert gpt to mbr with Disk Management and Command Prompt
TIPS:
1. You must have administrator privilege to do this in Windows.
2. Before you convert a disk, be sure to backup anything on the GPT disk that you want to convert to MBR disk. Converting the disk requires that all partitions and volumes are deleted on the disk first.

1. Right click "My Computer" and choose "Manage" -> "Storage" -> "Disk Management".
2. Delete all volumes on the GPT hard disk which you want to convert to MBR disk. This action would cause data loss if there are important data in your disk volume.
3. Right click on the hard disk 1 and choose "Convert to MBR Disk". After you convert GPT disk to MBR disk, you can create partitions on the now MBR disk if you like.
