PC HP M01-F2113ng i5-12400 16GB 512GB DOS - Windows 11 Installation fail - no storage device

[Krischeu]

Hi,

I bought last week the following PC: PC HP M01-F2113ng.  S/N: 4CE444BBYF

I can not install Windows 11. I am using a usb-stick which I am using at some other PCs and Notebooks. It has Windows 11 24H2 install image from Microsoft.

There was a FreeDOS preinstalled.

When I am starting the installation, - no device for installation found (hard drive).

Does anyone have a suggestion?

Best Regards,

Heinz

Hi, Heinz:

See if the driver I zipped up and attached below works for you.

It is for any PC with an Intel 11th > 13th gen core processor.

Unzip and copy all of the files in the folder in the attachment to a USB flash drive.

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

Boot from the Windows 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.

If Windows still can't find the drive, uncheck the box to include the compatible driver and try any of the ones listed.

Click Next, and Windows should install.

Cheers,

Paul
