Unable to install Windows 11 MSI PC
bartdu05 Posted messages 4 Status Membre -
Hello, I cannot install Windows 11 on my new MSI PC with a 12th Gen processor.
It can't find my hard drive!!
It only detects my boot USB...
So I searched on Google, and I found a lot of information and nothing at the same time ????. Therefore, I'm asking for help here.

Hello,
One hypothesis is that the SSD controller is not natively embedded in Windows 10 and 11, which is the case for Intel chips with Intel Rapid Storage.
You then need to download this driver in its appropriate version from the manufacturer's website and copy it to the installation USB drive.
So if I understand correctly, I'm going to the MSI site and I'm looking for something to compile a Windows boot?
No.
Just the Intel Rapid Storage driver or equivalent, which should normally just be extracted onto the installation USB drive.
See there for installation preparation, point 3, for an HP computer, but that doesn't change the question if it's indeed this driver that is the issue.

Hello
What type of SSD?
I have a terrible doubt, the disk contains not nothing, but FreeDos.
If the rest is not formatted, there will only be a small FAT32 partition at the front that the Windows installer will see as such without seeing the rest or nothing at all.
Perform cleanup from the command prompt on the installation key with Diskpart to delete the Dos partition and format everything in NTFS.
Verify that the BIOS is set to UEFI.
