Are you willing to run it under BootCamp or under virtualization software? Just open BootCamp Assistant and it'll do what you want

Just to clarify for the OP.

Running Windows via a BootCamp partition, will allow you to run Windows natively. You boot right into Windows. BootCamp Assistant is used to set up your BootCamp partition which is where you will install Windows.

Virtualization allows you to run your Windows of choice in a virtual environment. Two popular apps for this are Parallels and VMware Fusion.

If you need Microsoft Office type speed, then the virtual solution will probably work. If you need faster response, then BootCamp may be the better choice.

i need windows just for 3dmax, so i dont know best solution
but i cant get any father with bootcamp, if i dont format my disk

You don't have enough space for BootCamp (only 33GB left). Free up some space to get at least 50GB, then try again

so is it all just luck of space?

Very likely yes. It can't move files due lack of space. Free up some space and try again
