Dear all!

I tried today to install windows 11 from a USB Stick, but the problem was the harddisk was not shown in the setup. The hard disk was shown in bios an windows was running normally. The was the second time on a Z2 G9 that I was not able to install Windows (The first time Windows 10 and now Windows 11) from a USB Stick. Could you pleas tell what I have to do to install Windows from a USB Stick?

Hi:

 

If W11 can't find a drive to install on, you probably need to load the Intel RST driver when you are at the window where you get the message that Windows cannot find any drives.

 

I have zipped up and attached the driver below from your PC's support page after using 7-zip to extract the driver files from the exe file.

 

I don't know exactly which driver you need, but it should be one of those in one of the 3 subfolders within the F6 folder.

 

You can try browsing to each one of those folders after you select the Load Driver option.

 

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


Hopefully, Windows will find the drive and you will be able to install W11.
