During the installation of Windows 10, the setup process fails to detect any appropriate device drivers, displaying an error message similar to “No device drivers were found. Make sure that the installation media contains the correct drivers to proceed with setup.” The target system features an NVMe storage device, and the BIOS confirms its presence. The installation media was created using the official Windows 10 Media Creation Tool.
Several troubleshooting steps have been attempted:
• Verifying the BIOS settings and ensuring they are configured for AHCI or NVMe operation as required.
• Recreating the installation media and using different USB ports.
• Confirming that the storage device is properly connected and recognized by the system.
• Searching for manufacturer-provided NVMe drivers for potential loading during setup.
I am seeking recommendations on additional troubleshooting approaches. In particular, should the setup process be provided with pre-loaded NVMe drivers from a secondary USB drive, or are there specific BIOS configurations known to resolve this driver detection issue during installation? Any insights or experiences with a similar environment would be valuable.
