OMEN by HP 25L Gaming Desktop PC GT15-0000i (3Y5U6AV)
FreeDOS

Hi,

I just bought "Omen by HP 25L GT15-0563nf" with FreeDOS and I'm trying to install Windows 11.

The USB key is working  but I can't find any hard drive to install Windows: the installer says it can't find any driver.

The Bios options shows the SSD so it's detected by the PC.

I put the storage driver from the hp website but the installer don't see them.

Do you know what I can do to finish my Windows installation?

Hi:

 

See if this works:

 

I have zipped up and attached below, the Intel storage controller drivers that I hope work for Windows to find the hard drive.

 

Copy the 5 files from the F6/VMD/f6vmdflpy-x64 folder to a USB flash drive.

iastorvd.cat

iastorvd.inf

iastorvd.sys

rstmweventlogmsg.dll

rstmwservice.exe

 

Have the flash drive and your W11 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 W11 should find the drive and install.
