HP 17-c no driver found

[HopelssComputrG]

I am trying to do a clean download after wiping my computer due to windows file corrupt error. So I’m at the reinstalling MW11 with the media creation tool on a USB flash drive. I have tried to download the Rapid Technology Storage driver from the websites software and driver page. No matter what I do when it comes to no driver found, I hit beowse and select the USB drive and it doesn’t find anything. I’ve opened the file on a working laptop and extracted the SWsetup and then open it and copy the F6 folder. What am I doing wrong or what is the correct driver file and steps to get the correct folder on the USB to finish my MW11 reinstall please help I’ve been working on this for a week now. Thanks in Advance!

@HopelssComputrG,

Does your notebook have Intel Optane memory? If so, the F6 driver folder alone is not enough, and you need to add Optane drivers. 

Some 17-c0xxx models come with Intel Celeron or Pentium processors which don't require Intel RST drivers.

You need to provide exact model number or product number (ProdID) from the bottom cover of your notebook.

Your model has an Intel Core 11th gen processor, so you need to load Intel RST storage drivers.

I know you already tried the F6 driver folder but try one more time.

Download and run Media Creation Tool again to create a new W11 installation usb drive and follow the instructions below to install IRST storage drivers.

1. Download the IRST file from the link below and run it as administrator and follow the on-screen instructions to unpack the file.

https://ftp.hp.com/pub/softpaq/sp152501-153000/sp152863.exe

2. Go to C:\SWSetup\sp152863. Double click the folder then 'Driver' folder and copy the F6 folder to the root directory of the W11 installation usb drive.

3. Connect the usb drive to the notebook and boot the system from the usb drive. When asked where to install Windows, click on Load Driver -> Browse -> the usb drive in the window that opens -> the F6 folder -> OK.

4. Multiple .inf driver files may be displayed. Select one and click Next. If no driver files are displayed, uncheck the box on the bottom left corner of the screen to display drivers. Find and select an 'iaStorVD.inf ' file and click Next to load the driver.

5. The SSD may be displayed with multiple partitions. Delete every partition, and when you just see 'unallocated space,' click Next to proceed the Windows installation.

If this doesn't work, you need to use HP Cloud Recovery Tool to install W11.
