Hi all.
I keep getting a media driver your computer needs is missing. This could be the DVD, USB or hard disk driver. If you have a CD, DVD or USB flash drive with the driver on it please insert it now. I have a ryzen 5 5500 MSI a320m -pro max and 16gbs of ram with an RX 6600XT. I am trying to install windows 10 on an m.2 nvme drive. Please help. Thank you.
 
I would need to go to asrocks website download the drivers
you should be doing this anyway for use in the OS.
If you have a CD, DVD or USB flash drive with the driver on it please insert it now...

put them on the same usb stick and then select them for install
you want to add the driver install package to the disk and choose them when the option comes up to "insert it now".

Hi just wanted to double check if the graphics drivers are necessary for the windows install? I have already copied the others to the usb.
No graphics drivers necessary during install phase.

Make sure SATA controller is set to AHCI mode.
Make sure your M.2 drive is being properly detected in BIOS.

Normally you should not need to load any drivers during install.

Create latest version of windows install media.
If you install old version, then you'll have to do a lot of updates (may take hours depending on download/install speed),
before windows is up to date with all the security updates.

Hi it's still saying no device drivers were found.
 
NVME raid has to be turned off too - in BIOS.

What model M.2 drive are you using?
It may be necessary to load nvme drivers.

You can get them from gigabyte windows install tool. Doesn't matter if your board is MSI. NVME drivers are generic.

Download, extract, find included Intel or Samsung NVME driver,
copy to windows install media and load during install.
