boot - installing windows on a new SSD hard drive

I've purchased a new SSD hard drive for my laptop. I put the SSD into the HDD's place and put the HDD into the DVD rom place. at first there was no problem, the computer detected both of them and they were listed in the boot option. when I tried to install windows on the SSD, it said that this drive is MBR and it should be GPT. I converted it to GPT using AOMEI, and tried to install the windows but it gave me this error


windows cannot install required files. the file may be corrupt or missing...
error code :0x80070570


at first I thought that my device or the files had a problem. I tried with different windows files and different flash drives but the error occurred every time.
then I realized that after I've changed the SSD type to GPT, it is not shown as a boot option in the boot menu. I converted it back to MBR, it came back to boot options!!


I formatted my old windows drive on the HDD, hoping that it would help, but it didn't! and now my HDD is not listed in boot options either!!


no GPT drive is being listed in my boot options. when I convert the SSD to MBR it is one of the boot options. and windows cannot be installed on an MBR drive. I can't even install windows on my old drive! it gives me the same error. I used to install windows 10 and others on this HDD without any problem and it is gpt. I don't know what to do! my bios is updated. my laptop is Asus x450cc


please help me!
