I have a new 250 GB SSD (Samsung Evo) on my desktop running Windows 8. I've tried to install Ubuntu (12 and 14), but it fails to see the Windows installation, reporting the SSD as empty. I don't understand, because I have the exact same configuration on a laptop (Kingston 250 SSD roughly split 200 GB for Win and 50 unformatted) and Ubuntu got installed along windows with no fuss.
Completely lost in space and thanking any help in advance.
