Hello so recently my NVMe SSD died unfortunately. so i bought a new Samsung EVO 860 SATA SSD , and I'm now trying to install Windows on it but i keep getting the following error:

" A media driver your computer needs is missing, this could be a DVD, USB or hard disk driver "

I need help fixing it.

Things I have tried:
1. Using another USB Port
2. Using a USB 2.0 Port

I am currently trying to reinstall the media creation but this time a ISO File.

try using another USB drive. Its the drive causing error, the windows installer doesn't have a driver for it... it happens. Use another USB stick...
