    Installing Windows on new pc

    So i just built my pc and updated driver and now om trying to install Windows (10). But when it goes to check for my driver it says that i dont have one. But i have 2 SSD that are connected to the motherboard. They both show up in the Bios settings. So i dont know what wrong or is it that you just cant run your pc on only SSDs?

    You have asked for help but have told us nothing about your hardware.
    What sata ports are you connected to?
    You should only have 1 drive installed when installing windows.

      I have a Tuf gaming b760-plus wifi motherboard.
      2 SSD Kingston fury Renegade(PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2) and i have now removed 1 when i tried again. my ram is Kingston fury beast DDR5 2x32GB 6000mhz. A Tuf gaming1000w Gold and an Intel core i9-13900f. And i Connected the SSD in to the motherboard. Sorry if this is obvious where one should connect memory but im not really invested in pc building stuff and where to connect everything.

          Sorry for the late reply.
          Now that you have just the M2 connected does it show in the BIOS

            How ? With the windows creation tool?
            Try this
            If it fails can you take a pic and post?
            Reinstall Win 10 Fresh Install

            Make sure you only have the one (1) drive you want to install windows on connected.

            Download the win 10 tool run it to recreate the flash drive – Must be minimum 8GB

            Download Windows 10

            Watch this video
            How To Install Windows 10 From USB - YouTube

            In the video at 2:35 Where to install Windows. Highlight each partition and delete.

            Then install on the unallocated space.

            In the video at 2:54 you will notice it restarts the computer.
            When you are doing this and you get to that point Remove the usb stick whilst it is restarting.
            Also if you want to setup a local account instead of logging in with a Microsoft account
            Turn off your wireless network and or remove the network cable.
            This point is 3.32 in the video - Choose I don’t have internet.
            If you want to log in with a Microsoft account then leave the network as is.

            Before doing any install, it is a good idea to go to the support page for your system. Download the drivers you are going to need i.e. chipset, sound, video, wireless, etc. Whilst Win10 has a lot of native drivers, Microsoft drivers are designed for ease of use and are NOT designed for any type of performance. Store these drivers on another usb or you can even just make a folder on your install usb when you are finished making the install usb. Copy the drivers into that folder.

            When you are finished with the Windows install, then install your drivers.

            Reboot after installing the drivers
