No drivers detected during the Windows 10 setup process
Consider linking your optical drive to another SATA controller and attempt once more. If unsuccessful, use a USB flash drive, transfer it to another device, install Windows Media Creation Tool (available at the provided link), format the drive with Windows 10, and then connect it to your system to boot from it.
They mentioned a strange SATA issue and suggested switching from AHCI to IDE, which might fix it. Do you know if this approach is effective?
Avoid this step. Performance will drop. The issue lies with the SATA controller. You must first access the setup. Then you'll encounter another issue on the drive selection screen at certain locations. In that case, obtain the extracted SATA controller drivers (often found in the motherboard chipset drivers section) from the manufacturer's website. Save them to a USB flash drive. After extraction, click "Load Drivers" and choose the folder containing the drivers. Windows will scan and install them, making you ready to proceed. Make sure you don't download the setup EXE file yet, as Windows isn't installed and can't run executables. If it's a zip file, extract it first.
No, you're not doing it correctly. You should not download SATA drivers from your motherboard's website and paste them into a USB driver. Instead, follow the manufacturer's instructions for installing the correct drivers on your system.
Windows Media Creation Tool will handle everything. (It will format your flash drive, so clear out any files you need beforehand.) After it finishes, just make a new folder—name it something like "SATA drivers" or whatever suits you—and place the extracted drivers there. Then boot from the flash drive (if available, choose the one labeled with "UEFI"). The setup will proceed smoothly. At the disk/partition selection screen, select "Load Drivers," navigate to your folder containing the drivers, and Windows will manage the rest. Once complete, choose your drive or partition and you’re ready to use it.

Run Windows XP from the boot menu without needing to prompt for device drivers. Works smoothly with any application. Thanks! WhatsApp Status Video Download
