[SOLVED] Unable to install Windows 10 from USB Drive on X570 Aorus Master - "Media Driver Is Missing"

I am trying to setup a newly built PC using an Aorus Master.

During the UEFI boot installation for Windows 10 I get stuck at "A media driver that your computer needs is missing" in the Windows 10 installer.

I created a USB Boot Drive with the Windows 10 ISO downloaded from Microsoft. It's a USB 2.0 drive plugged into the USB 2.0 port. I've tried multiple USB 2.0 ports on the Aorus.

The SanDisk USB boot drive was configured on a Mac as ExFAT with a Master Boot Record scheme using the terminal.

How can I get Windows 10 installed? I am struggling.
 
Solution
The media driver error often actually means that the windows installer doesn't have drivers for the actual USB stick its installed on, so try another stick.
