Core lite boot loader failed

Okay so I am very new to this sort of thing.

I followed the instructions for installation to the T.
I chose the option to erase windows 7 from the laptop and use Zorin exclusively.
At some point the installation failed and gave me a bootloader installation failed message.
None of the options I choose will allow me to continue in any fashion.
Choose a different bootloader: with the sda listed along side the ssd flash drive
Neither work.
Continue without a bootloader.
Doesn't work.
Cancel installation.
Haven't tried this because it say the computer may not boot.
I have a feeling this has ended this computers life if I can't find some good advice.
I'm at my threshold for solving this problem alone.

Can you please run Zorin in live mode and launch Gparted and upload a screenshot? Thanks.
