Subject: install windows 7 from disc on H170m with NVMe
Posted: 31 Dec 2016 at 12:43am
So I found a guide online for imbedding the usb drivers into the iso, which I believe I did properly. I can boot from the usb and it goes into the windows install process. I get to the part where it asks where to install, and no drives are listed. On the usb I have a folder called "nvme" and have a bunch of different drivers in that folder (some intel, some older intel, some samsung). I can browse to those drivers, and install them one at a time - but still no drive is shown as an option to install the OS to. I might just have to give up and install on my older sata SSD drive and use this m.2 for additional storage? Or can I install everything onto the ssd, run the "hotfixes" I can find, then clone that drive to the m.2 drive?
Thanks for any help you can give!
