So i am running a linux distribution (POP OS to be specific) on my ssd and i am trying to install a fresh copy of windows on my nvme drive. I use ventoy so i can have the usb be bootable but not in a read-only format. The specific nvme drive i have is a SK Hynix BC711. When i get to the windows install screen it says i am missing a driver, but i select browse and click the drivers that show up. My issue is that no matter what drivers i use, it always says that they are not up to date or something and to contact my vendor. I have used drivers from HP's page on my computer and Dell's pages on my specific nvme drive. I am quite desperate at this point becuase i cannot seem to find the correct drivers. Like i said before, i am running linux so some of the programs that could help with this do not work. I can extract the driver files themselves however. I believe i need intel drivers specifcially. Thank you to anyone who can provide assistance.

If your notebook has an Intel 11th gen or newer processor, see if these drivers that I zipped up and attached below work.

 

Copy all of the files in both folders within the F6 folder to a USB flash drive.

 

If your notebook has an older processor than an Intel 11th gen, I wouldn't know what the problem could be.

these drivers didnt work unfortunately. the entire issue stems from the fact that it says my instalation media is missing the drivers and therefore im trying to manually select them, which confuses me becuase im using the official windows 10 iso.  as for processor, i have a 12th gen intel i7

i apologize for my earlier reply, the drivers do indeed work and i am extremely thankful (considering ive spent weeks on this issue). i missed a couple files so it was purely my fault. now all i have to do is format the nvme drive correctly. thank you so much for your help
