boot - Unable to install Ubuntu alongside Windows 10 due to UEFI firmware error

I have recently bought a new ASUS laptop which has Windows 10. Now I need to install Ubuntu 15.04 alongside Windows. I have done this before with my other laptops. However, now when i try to install Ubuntu, first during the installation it gives me a warning as;



Force UEFI Installation? This machines's firmware has started
this installer in UEFI mode but it looks like there maybe existing
operating systems already installed using BIOS compatibility mode, If
you continue to install Debian in UEFI mode,it might be difficult to
reboot into any BIOS-mode operating system.



Also note that I'm not getting the "Install alongside Windows" option. Instead, I see;



This computer currently has detected no operating systems.



Even though I have Windows 10 installed.


How can i install Ubuntu alongside Windows?
