Hi,
So basically I have been trying to install Windows 10 from a USB (used previously for a friend on his AMD computer) onto a new PC. When I try and install windows I get the error message "A media driver your computer needs is missing". I have tried to boot from different USB ports (I only have USB3 ports on the front and motherboard) from a restart and from the installation window. I have tried updating the BIOS (the Boot menu, the legacy USB (enabled and disabled - disabled caused my mouse and keyboard to not function and couldn't detect a bootable driver) and the changing one of the boot settings to (UEFI only) and changing the Safe Boot to Windows UEFI mode ). I have read online to re burn/ download the ISO. I tried re-downloading the ISO to a USB from my MacBook Pro 2017 but that didn't seem to include a UEFI compatible boot and my PC couldn't detect it.
The SSD and the USB both show up in the BIOS and in the Windows Installation menu when I choose browse. However if I choose the USB the error message I get is "no device drivers were found".
I have an ASUS CD that came with the mother board? Should I try installing both together? I am not sure what drivers are missing and how to get them downloaded so I can install windows 10.
Specs:
ASUS Prime B450M-A motherboard
AMD Ryzen 5 2600G CPU with integrated Graphics
PNY 240 SSD
I'm trying to boot from a PNY 2.0 8 GB USB. (it worked for a friend, but I'm not sure if they were able to boot it from a 2.0 or 3.0 port).
ANY AND ALL HELP IS APPRECIATED!
