For Sure! On the left side menu Select Surface Test and click the Start Now button. Let me know when finished. If it asks to repair anything say YES.
After that, Run the Check file operation
I have to take care of a few things let me know when this is done.

My bad we havent created a partition yet. Select Create Partition. Choose NTFS for file type.

Give a label name such as Windows etc
Create as "Primary"
File system "NTFS"
Drive Leter "C"
Leave the rest as they are and Click OK
