You need to load the Intel disk storage controller drivers so Windows can find the drive on PC's with Intel 11th gen and newer core processors.

I have zipped up and attached the Intel storage controller drivers below, that are needed for Windows to find the drive on PCs with Intel 11th gen and newer core processors.

The attached file is good for both W10 & W11.

Copy all of the files in both folders in the attached file to a USB flash drive.

Have the flash drive and your Windows 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 W11 should install.

HI Paul - i downloaded the drivers and have gotten the PC to 'see' them, but it only sees the USB for the drive to install windows on, and it won't install to a USB drive.  How do I get the widows bootable installation media to see the hard drive?  

here are some screen shots that may help to explain it better.

Hi:

Unfortunately, I don't know what the problem could be.

What happens if you don't check the box to include a compatible driver?

Does it see the drive then by selecting any of the driver options you have?

Your PC should be supported by the HP cloud recovery tool which you can use to make a bootable USB recovery drive that will reinstall Windows, the drivers and the software that originally came with your notebook.

Here is an info link for how to use the utility:

HP Consumer PCs - Using the HP Cloud Recovery Tool in Windows 11 and 10 | HP® Support

In order to use the cloud recovery tool on another PC, you have to know your notebook's product number which should be in the BIOS' system information screen somewhere and it would look something like this: 174R7AV#ABA

You can download the software from the Microsoft Store:
