Hello,
Hoping someone might have some insight on an issue I'm having with a newly purchased Samsung 990 Pro 2TB drive. My motherboard, an Asus ROG B550-F Gaming, won't properly detect the drive while CSM is disabled and I can't install Windows to it. It also doesn't show as a bootable drive option in my boot priority list.
If I enable CSM, it does show up as a boot drive, and the Windows 11 install starts, but when I select the version of the OS, it says Windows 11 can't be installed on my system.
When I switch back to my previous boot drive, a Samsung 980 Pro 1TB, the system boots fine. But if I then try to add the 990 Pro drive to the secondary M2 slot, the system fails to boot. Once I remove the 990 Pro, normal system operation resumes.
I've read a lot of comments across many sites from people saying they've had nothing but issues with the 990 Pro drive, and I'm at my wits end with it. My system simply refuses to work with the 990 Pro installed and I'm not sure what else to do. I have the latest version of BIOS for my motherboard, version 3002.
If anyone else has encountered this and has any advice, I'm all ears. Thanks in advance
