Hello Peeps,

I have created a Live(USB), i've had Windows 8.1 installed and i want to dual boot Windows And Ubuntu, I have tried almost everything to dual boot but here's what the installation shows on every at attempt :

1) No Windows Found For Dual-Booting
2) No Existing Partitions Found

the last option for me was to format the whole Drive and boot only Ubuntu.

p.s. i have gpt partition and when installing ubuntu it showed me a warning like "GPT table found, no fake msdos table found, maybe the table is corrupt"

And one more question, Does Hackintosh support GPT Partition Style if not then what ?

I can't comment on Hackintosh; however, Ubuntu certainly supports GPTable. Best tutorial I've found: Ubuntu 13.10 installer (alongside windows 8) and gpt partition. Read the answer by Thunderbird. This works in 14.04 as well. I used this for my install and worked beautifully until I couldn't stand W8 anymore and just went pure Kubuntu.
