Lenovo Thinkcentre M92P
When booting to USB installer disk installation proceeds as expected
1962 no operating system found
When booting into preview mode all disks load without issue, so its not the cable
Secure Boot option either not present or disabled
Last time I fixed this by adding a fake line to the boot loader from instructions on the web
Got a warning during installation about UEFI mode
Windows Fast Startup disabled

here's a list of prerequisites to run pc in uefi mode, like:
1) GPT partitioned disk (holds true if you want to run both win and linux)
2) efi partition with bootloaders
3) Bios is set to boot in uefi mode
4) efi vars are programmed

It appears that, prior to to following the BootOrder specified in the UEFI 
Boot Manager, the Lenovo BIOS first checks the UEFI Boot Manager 
configuration for an entry labelled "Windows Boot Manager".[1]
