Once you have the correct drive selected you may hit C to create a partition in the unpartitioned space that will take you to the next screen.

5. Here you may resize the partition, if instructed to do so, or select all of the unpartitioned space for your installation. Hit enter to select the value that you entered for your partition size.

6. The partition preview screen should show your newly created partition at the size you specified. Due to significant bit rounding, the number you see may be a few digits higher or lower than what you initially selected. Hit ENTER with your newly created partition selected to go to the partition formatting screen.

7. Choose the file format specified by your instructor. In order to ensure that all of the security features of the operating system are optimized, choose NTFS as the file system. If this area of the disk was formatted before, you may choose the "Quick" option. A new disk or partition usually should be formatting using the traditional format option. Choose the correct formatting option and press ENTER to go through the following process.

You may want to either write the password down or consult with your instructor on a password appropriate for your use.
