How do I install Windows 11 on my new Asus FA506NC laptop?
Asked by

I just got a new Asus FA506NC laptop that doesn't have an OS installed yet. When I access the BIOS utility, I noticed it only provides an AMD RAID driver. I thought that when installing Windows, I'm supposed to use AHCI. There's also a LAN driver available, but I'm unsure if that's what I need to use. Just to clarify, this laptop runs on an AMD CPU, not Intel. Can anyone help me figure out how to proceed?

This model actually ships with Windows 11 Home already, so don’t worry about compatibility! First, make sure your BIOS is updated to the latest version. You can then install Windows 11 using a bootable USB drive. Just remember to check your BIOS settings: if Secure Boot is disabled, you’ll need to enable it and turn off any CSM compatibility options before installing. After you’ve got Windows up and running, you can update the chipset drivers later if necessary.

CuriousCat12: Thanks for the help! I can't seem to find any CSM settings in my BIOS. Do you know where those options might be hiding?
