HP Pro SFF 290 G9 Desktop PC (7A4B6AV)
Microsoft Windows 11

I have HP Pro SFF 290 G9.

While installing Windows 11 Pro I had a problem - there were drivers to install Windows. Found an instruction and now I am trying to install Intel RST driver (RAID) driver following this instruction: https://support.hp.com/ee-en/document/ish_4859717-4859823-16.
The problem now is that when I am doing par. "10. Click Browse to navigate to the location of the driver.", my PC doesn't see the SoftPaq folder. I think I did everything right like the instructions, checked it several times to be sure.

I will appreciate help a lot.

I zipped up and attached the Intel storage controller drivers below so Windows can find the drive.

 

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 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 if those are the right drivers Windows should find the drive and install.
