Hi! I have been trying to use another M.2 to use as my system drive, changed from the default to a Samsung 990 evo 1TB and I have been having problems with windows not recognizing it, or well, the windows installer, and I have been trying to disable RST on my bios but it doesn’t let me, is there anything I can do?

Hi:

 

See if this works:

 

I have zipped up and attached the Intel storage controller drivers that Windows needs to find the drive.

 

The attached file is good for both W10 & W11.

 

Copy all of the files in both folders in the attached file to a USB flash drive.

 

Have the flash drive and your Windows installation media plugged into USB ports.

 

Boot from the W10/W11 installation flash drive.

 

When you get to the screen where no drives can be found, click on the Load driver option, browse to the flash drive with the storage controller drivers on it.

 

If you check the box, it will only include the compatible driver.

 

Click Next and Windows should find the drive and install.
