You're facing a common issue when setting up Windows 10 on newer laptops like the Flow Z13. The installer may not recognize the internal SSD because it hasn't been included in the standard driver list. You can try extracting the necessary drivers from the Windows 11 installation media or using the built-in tools to locate and install the appropriate storage drivers for your specific hardware. If you need help finding the right driver, let me know the exact model details and I can guide you further.

Checked the intel RST drivers and saw mentions of VMD. I disabled VMD in the BIOS and everything worked correctly now. It seems a VMD driver existed, but the RST one wasn’t functioning, so I’ll keep it turned off temporarily.

The touch screen functions during installation and when used out of the box, similar to the Microsoft Surface. No drivers are required.

Touching isn't functional until drivers are added. Also, Microsoft requires an internet connection for the setup process on Windows 11 Home. Since there are no drivers for the built-in WiFi card, you have to work around it—either enter Audit mode (ctrl+shift+F3) or use a USB Ethernet adapter that Windows supports natively.

This was really useful, thanks. Did you ever attempt to restart VMD after setting up the new operating system?

It looks like you omitted something. The text should remain as is, though it may appear correctly in VMD after downloading the Intel RST driver and loading it during setup.
