Ubuntu Install Unknown Partitions

So i want to install Ubuntu and im booting from USB. Im new to Ubuntu.

When i click SOMETHING ELSE, it shows 4 partions: the first of 1mb, sda1, unknown free space, second of 100mb sda2 (that i know its system recovery from win7), third is 170gb (win7) sda3, and the last one is like 830gb, i dont know where this came from.... on windows i have them separated.

is this a bug or something? How to install without losing all my data and keeping Win7?

When i try without installing i get to see my 3 partions (170gb, 600gb, 230gb) but not when i try to install.

Edit

ubuntu@ubuntu:~$ sudo gdisk -l /dev/sda

outputs this:

Your disk is set up with the Windows Logical Disk Manager (LDM) system (aka "dynamic disks"), which is a proprietary Microsoft layer atop regular partitions. LDM is conceptually similar to the Linux Logical Volume Manager (LVM), but the two are incompatible formats. In any event, you cannot install Ubuntu on the disk in its current state -- at least, not easily. (It might be possible to cobble something together, but even for a Linux guru, that would be a bit of a challenge.)

The easiest solution is to convert from LDM to a more conventional partitioning setup. Some commercial Windows tools, such as EaseUS Partition Master and Partition Wizard, are supposed to be able to do this losslessly. The tools that come with Windows can do the conversion, too, but only by starting with a clean set of partitions (thus effectively wiping your data). Of course, if you're willing to back up your data and know how to restore your system to bootability upon restoring it, this may be an acceptable solution. (For that matter, I strongly recommend backing up all your data before attempting to convert the disk in any way; although the conversion is likely to be simple, the consequences of a bug, power failure at an inopportune moment, or other problem could be catastrophic.) Some people have reported success with wiping the partition table and then using TestDisk to create a new set of partitions, but I recommend against this because there's no guarantee that the filesystems in an LDM setup will be contiguous, which is an assumption of TestDisk. Thus, TestDisk will work if that assumption is met, but if it's not, you could end up with corrupted filesystems and at least some lost data.

Another option is to buy another disk and install Linux on it. That way, you can leave the Windows LDM configuration alone and let Linux control the new disk.

FWIW, Windows has a habit of converting from a conventional configuration to LDM whenever you create a setup with more than four partitions on a disk. AFAIK, Windows doesn't warn you about what it's doing -- or if it does, the message seems to leave little impression, because I have yet to see anybody ever mention it. Thus, you should never use the standard Windows partitioning tools to add partitions, particularly if you know you'll be exceeding four partitions, unless you're willing to use an LDM setup. (A common newbie mistake is to use Windows to create a partition for Linux prior to running the Linux installer. This often pushes the partition count over four and creates more work to undo this problem.)

Shrink LDM partitions from inside Windows

Then free space appears and you can install Ubuntu there.

Disable Page File and System Protection to shrink disk fully

As shown at: https://superuser.com/questions/1017764/how-to-shrink-a-windows-10-partition/1060508#1060508

Otherwise, Windows has some unmovable files, and you can't shrink the partition as much as you'd like.
