I made a bootable USB using the official tool and encountered an issue with a missing driver. The link you shared isn’t working. Try checking your system settings or reinstalling the driver for Windows 11. If problems persist, consider updating your device drivers or consulting the manufacturer’s support.

Identify the motherboard and CPU. Install the Intel Rapid Storage Technology package. Save it to your installation drive and proceed to the partition creation section by clicking "Have Disk."

Appreciate the info, it's a laptop running an i5-1135g7 processor.

You can try a different method to install SetupRST.exe. Instead of placing it directly in the folder, consider using an alternative installation tool or following the official setup instructions provided by the developer.

They usually have the drivers saved in a specific folder. If not, Dell provides the Intel driver as a self-extracting archive with easy-to-follow guidance.

Yes, it should work on a Lenovo laptop as well.

It should be, that's merely the Intel driver in another package.

I saved the driver from a Dell laptop with Latitude 5340. I pulled out the files and placed them on the installation media, but the issue persists.

Did you select "Have Disk" and start the drivers? The Windows installer won’t automatically apply them if they’re just on the disk. (Unless you add extra steps that aren’t needed for your situation.) https://www.dell.com/support/kbdoc/en-us...:~:text=on the key.-,Install IRST Driver,-Note : The

It displays an additional screen that searches for the driver first. There’s a toggle labeled “show compatible drivers.” When you uncheck it, it hides the list; checking it reveals the drivers, indicating incompatibility with your laptop.
