During setup I choose Windows instead of entering a product key. The warning reads: "A media driver your computer needs is missing. This could be a DVD, USB or Hard disk driver. If you have a CD/DVD or USB flash drive with the driver on it, please insert it now. Note: If the Windows installation media is in the DVD drive or on a USB drive, you can safely remove it for this step." I’m unsure which drivers to upload to my USB drive—I have a Sandisk Ultra USB. The list is available here: https://uk.pcpartpicker.com/list/QnnpFg—and there are some random Seagate Barracuda drives that seem to work for booting the Windows 10 installer.

Download the file and extract it to your USB drive. Navigate to the specified folder after loading. Is your NVME SSD recognized in the BIOS?

The SSD is recognized, yet the setup indicates no new device drivers were detected.

The same issue occurred with me, which was resolved by removing and reinstalling the Windows Media Creation Tool and using a different USB drive.

I attempted that and the same result showed up; however, since I'm using a Mac, I'm employing balenaEtcher.

Consider trying a different ISO or having someone with a Windows PC generate it for you.

Is it found within the window installer or limited to the BIOS?
