Question Windows ISO doesn't seem to be installing to my M.2 (from flash drive)

[KushPackard]

Hi there.

I have a copy of Windows 10 via the Official Media Creator Tool, saved onto a USB (also used rufus in the process); this is for a fresh install of Windows 10 on my PC.

I am able to load the boot drive with the Windows 10 install, however when it completes and restarts I get the following problems:

• It goes into a restart loop. Which is fine because I counter that by shutting down and removing the USB.
• It then says "Reboot and Select proper Boot device or Insert Boot Media in selected Boot device and press a key" - I have gone into the BIOS settings, selected Boot mode as 'LEGACY+UEFI' and set Boot Option 1 as my 'Hard Disk : Samsung SSD 960 EVO 250GB'

This is where I get stuck, for some reason it just won't boot up this hard drive with the 'installed' Windows 10.

Would appreciate any help! Thanks.

UPDATE: I have tried to install Windows 10 on my SSD rather than M.2 (same process) and it worked!

To anyone else having this issue please consider an issue with your M.2!
