[SOLVED] Problem Installing Windows 10 On Msi B150M night Elf

[AntonyCaesar07]

Hi, I'm Having problems installing windows 10 from Both Dvd and USB. I downloaded the iso from Microsoft's official site. I Tried both legacy and UEFI mode...it's showing "A Media Driver your Computer needs is missing...... " I have even tried changing different Storages but it's still the same.
I have tried connecting the usb drive to both usb 3.0 and 2.0 ports but it's still the same. and when i tried installing from a DVD it gets stuck after flashing the windows logo that means can't even get to the installation process. Please Help me..

My pc config : Msi B150m Night Elf
Corsair Vengeance LPX 8GB 2400mhz
Intel Core i5 6400
Thermaltake Lightpower 450W Bronze Psu
Nvidia GTX 950

This discussion has a number of fixes. https://answers.microsoft.com/en-us...127-f088-44a2-af36-ba90a1604855?auth=1&page=1 However the most common is changing the install USB port in mid install.

• If you are installing with USB drive, when it asks for driver, click Cancel. Once you are at the welcome screen, insert the USB drive to a different USB port. Then click Install Now to install.

Yes...i tried that...not working....stops during installation phase...
May be my mobo is dead...
Does try flashing newer/older bios help to solve this problem?

If there is a newer BIOS it is certainly worth a try; the most recent is 7979v1D . You may want to place the chipset driver on a DVD and when the install asks for the missing driver, direct it to the DVD drive.

You wrote your having problems installing Windows, however no mention is made of the storage hardware you trying to install on.

One HDD was Toshiba and The other Was WD Blue...
I have tried several HDDs and SSDs but the problem was the same...
