Question Windows 11 not recognizing NVME M.2 drive

[TheKingpin221]

Hi, after I installed raid drivers from the MSI support page, my NVME drive disappeared and cannot be used. I tried restarting my PC, reinstalling Windows, resetting CMOS, and updating BIOS. At first, it showed up as hidden in the device manager, and I don't see it on disk management. I then uninstalled it from the device manager in hope that when I restart my PC it will show up.

I suppose I didn't have to install raid drivers at all and probably that is what caused this problem.

The drive is visible in BIOS as shown in the picture, but not anywhere else. HELP, what do I do??


P.S. It's a brand new NVME I used it for a month now. (Kingston)

Why RAID if you don't have it ? Google "Raid" if you don't know what it is.
Turn off RAID in BIOS, turn off CSM so you boot in UEFI mode and make sure TPM is enabled for W11 compatibility.

Hi, fixed It by uninstalling a raid driver in the device manager. It was under storage controllers. After I uninstalled that driver my nvme reappeared immediately.

What is this TPM compatibility? I may have a similar issue but I havent downloaded any extra drivers.

-Thank you,

No need for extra drivers just because of TPM, they are built in W11.
