Asked By TechieToy123 On

I'm having trouble installing Windows 10/11 on my new PC build. The installer is saying that no drivers were found, and I can't see my M.2 SSD in the BIOS or on the drive selection screen during the installation process. I'm not sure what to do next. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated!

Make sure that your BIOS is set to AHCI mode instead of RAID mode. Also, it would help to check what chipset your motherboard is using because you might need to load specific disk controller drivers during the installation if your drive isn't recognized. This could be crucial for getting your SSD detected properly.

If your M.2 SSD isn't showing up in the BIOS, one thing you can try is switching it to a different M.2 slot. Sometimes, the SSD just needs a different connection to get detected. If that doesn't work, you might want to test with another SSD if you have one on hand.
