Seems likely to me it is trying to install to the wrong partition, or the wrong disk. I would skip dual boot (since it sounds like there is nothing important on the laptop from what you've done so far) delete existing partitions in the installer and give the whole disk to Debian and let it try its best by itself. Also check for daft antivirus bios settings, but these usually give more obvious errors.
