Windows 10 and Ubuntu dual boot issues

Question

I currently have Windows 10 Pro x64 installed (no upgrade because my PC is custom-built).

Whenever I boot into the Ubuntu 14.04.2 live USB, it doesn't give me an option to install it alongside Windows 10.

I don't have UEFI enabled and I'm not sure if the 'Something else' option will allow me to boot into Windows anymore.

Any ideas?

use Disk Management to create a separate partition(I mean free unallocated space) and try to install now — Ravan, Aug 21 '15 at 06:18
Already have a separate partition with free space and yes, my disk is basic. — JasonVS 1, Aug 21 '15 at 11:26

I would install using "Something else", but I'm afraid GRUB2 isn't going to detect Windows 10. — JasonVS 1, Aug 21 '15 at 23:12

This is quite a useful guide on how to use the "something else" function that Ravan is talking about: Answer
