Driver files missing during Windows 10 setup
Driver files missing during Windows 10 setup
I plan to create a boot drive that appears in BIOS, but when using the Windows 10 installer from USB, I receive a warning about missing device drivers. The system insists the media must have the right drivers before proceeding. I'm running on a B450M DSP3 with Gigabyte, a Ryzen 2700X and Vega 56 PowerColour. Changing USB devices or ports hasn't resolved the issue—I've tested both legacy and UEFI boot modes, as well as BIOS-to-OS handoff settings across all configurations. Need assistance

Besides that, you can install the SATA controller driver for your board onto a different USB drive, boot into the Windows installer, choose 'load driver', and load it from the alternate USB to test.

I know some time back Rufus was having issues burning Windows 10 .iso files, not sure if this is a persistent issue. Microsoft's Media Creation Tool was the only way I was able to get a working installation drive for a build a friend was doing He had an installation flash drive from Microsoft (purchased directly through their store, so I know it was genuine) which refused to boot.
