Hello everyone, I'm attempting to install Windows 10 on my system but it's not functioning properly. Previously, I used Windows 11 without issues, so now I'm reverting back to 10 for work purposes. However, I'm unable to complete the installation. I've tried various USB drives (including one from Ventoy), different ports, and even changed the port during installation, but it still doesn't work. I've searched for the necessary drivers but they aren't responding when I try to select them in the installer. My system specs are: CPU Ryzen 5 7600, GPU Radeon RX 6800 XT, motherboard TUF Gaming B650-plus Wi-Fi, 32GB DDR5 RAM, storage setup with two SSDs (one running Fedora, one 2TB HDD for games), and I removed 500GB from the SSD intended for Windows. If you need more details, just let me know.

Welcome to the forums, newcomer!
I'm having trouble getting Windows 10 on my system—it isn't working.
Where did you get the installer for Windows 10?
I used to have Windows 11 until I switched to Linux and had no issues there.
Why not try installing Windows 11 instead?
I searched for drivers for my system, but each time I tried to select them in the installer, it wouldn't work.
For your motherboard drivers, check this site:
https://www.asus.com/motherboards-c...no...-PLUS-WIFI
It's the manufacturer's support page. Make sure to install Windows OS drivers in an elevated command prompt.

got it from this site because the downloads load faster than microsoft. Feels really heavy, and with esu updates i can keep using win 10 for a year or more. I already downloaded all these drivers, but they were read-only, so i put them on my HDD instead of USB. I found them in the installer, but they didn’t install properly. Some worked when opened, but installation failed.

I saved the installer from the official Microsoft site but the same error persisted, so it's not related to that.
