I used option 3 but you may prefer one of the others.

Right, I get that... But I want someone to give me step by step directions after the erase....

Do I go into the partition editor and create everything there / or do I re-start and let windows format the drive ?

Thanks for your reply...

After secure erasing the drive with Parted Magic.

When you are on the Windows install screen, Press SHIFT+F10
A command window should pop-up.
Type diskpart
Type list disk
Type select disk X (X being the number of the SSD).
Type create partition primary
A success message should pop-up
Type Exit
Type Exit
Continue with the Windows install
