Microsoft Windows 11

Please can I get the correct driver version - I just bought a new M2 hdd and I cannot install Windows 11 or 10 on my laptop. I have tried multiple versions and none work.

@ozboss,

 

You can use an IRST driver file (sp152863) from the driver support page for 15-d4000 series and follow the instructions below for an IRST driver installation. 

 

1. Create a Windows installation usb drive with Microsoft Media Creation Tool, which tends to be trouble free during an IRST driver installation, compared with ISO file-based installation usb drive.

 

2. Download Intel RST driver from the link below. Run it as administrator and follow the on-screen instructions to perform the driver extraction.

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

 

 

3. Go to C:\SWSetup\sp152863. Double click the sp152863 folder then 'Driver' and copy the F6 folder to the root directory of a Windows installation usb drive. The F6 folder contains IRST drivers which the installation setup needs in order to detect the storage drive.

 

4. 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.

 

5. 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.

 

6. The storage drive may be displayed with 'unallocated space.' Click Next to proceed the installation.

 

If you still have the installation problem, you can use HP Cloud Recovery Tool to install Windows, so let us know how the installation goes.
