HP Laptop: 17cn3621ds Model: 8L8B5UA

When trying to install Windows 11. After my drive is formatted and I have answered the first 3 questions. I am being asked to install a network driver. I cannot find just a network driver. I have also tried using the command prompt to reformat the ssd drive. Since the drive was formatted to be the Boot drive it will not allow it to be formatted. I thought that if I formatted the drive, I would then use the windowsmediationtool.

I would appreciate any help to solve my problem!
