The only reason I'm posting this is because I was stuck for a few hours and the internet had tons of conflicting fixes for this that led me nowhere. Still stuck with GPT errors and a whole lot of general bollocks. For some reason this refused to work on the USB port on the left of my macbook and for reasons known only to Job's & Gates' lovechild, worked on the one located on the right. Sorcery.

Nov 10, 2015 On supported Macs running OS X El Capitan, Boot Camp comes with a modified interface that places the ISO image selector and partitioning on a single screen, allowing a user to easily select an ISO.

Windows4. Drag a partition size that suits you, I went with 64GB - then click Continue
5. Magic happens then the computer would probably reboot right into OSX. Manually reboot and this time hit the Option Key, Feel free to bang away at it. (Disclaimer: Do not bang away at it.)
6. When presented with boot options, please ignore the Windows option. Select UEFI boot.
7. Oh looky, run through the windows install until you get to the Disk screen. At this point choose your desired windows partition created in step 4 and then click format. The next button magically appears and you should now be able to proceed with installation.
8. Magic happens again, then a couple reboots later and Win 10 is done. Grab another beer. or three.
9. The next time you bring up the dual boot screen, Only OSX and Windows would be presented and the UEFI option is gone.
10. Happy dualbooting. Hell you'd be happy too after six beers.
