Windows 10 and 11 Clean Install M.2 PCIe NVMe SSD Not Detected Get Intel RST Driver or Disable VMD

all right so if you're trying to install Windows 10 or 11 and you're not seeing your m.2 nvme drive um it can be two things so first thing we're gonna have to load a driver okay I'm gonna browse for that I actually went to Intel's website so if you Google Intel vmd driver um it'll give you like the Intel rapid storage Mr Intel rst thing or whatever um and then you also get these Intel vmd drivers so you can try like the non-intel non-intel vmd and you can do the Intel vmd so we're going to try doing this first and see what happens so we'll click that we'll go to next we'll let it install the driver and we'll see if the SSD pops up or not so there's two different things it can be a driver issue or it can be your SSD doesn't support the Intel vmd here you can see it didn't show any drive so we're going to try again let's try the non-intel vmd and actually there's no driver here okay so because we don't get the thing so here you can see they have all these other like Intel chipsets so if you uncheck this then you can see the other drivers but it's hiding the ones that aren't compatible so what we're gonna do we're gonna quit the installation here we're going to exit this okay and now what we're going to do we're going to boot to the BIOS uh the customer here didn't set up their CPU fan connection properly so it's going to complain about that but uh this isn't what we're working on we're working on the uh SSD detection issue so we're going to bios it says press f2 or delete so I'm pressing the delete key you should get into the BIOS here you go okay so next thing we're going to do we're going to go to advanced mode this is for Asus or is uh Asus or Asus motherboards we'll go to advanced mode next what we do we go to Advanced here we have this system agent sa configuration then you see this um sorry where is it here vmd setup menu all right so we'll go in there and all we got to do is disable the vmd controller um and then say okay so I don't know if their SSD doesn't support it or their processor doesn't support it or if it really is just maybe we have the wrong driver I don't know um but for some reason it doesn't want to work with that we're going to exit here we're going to save changes and reset okay and then now we're gonna boot from the hard drive or the boot drive again or the boot installer pressing delete again of course it's going to complain about the fan right so I'm going to press delete okay F1 to ignore the fan thing and we can also turn that setting off in there but uh they should plug their fan into the right spot so that way it can know when to speed up properly all right we're going to go to the boot menu you can press f8 or click there then we're going to boot from my USB I actually already got this working earlier okay so we'll boot there and I selected the 64-bit option okay now we got the windows installer starting up okay right I accidentally push the volume button which is gonna turn off the recording if I let go so I gotta keep holding this button hopefully it's actually recording the whole thing okay all right here we go so I'm gonna go to next all right enter install now enter all right they didn't tell me if they have a Windows license to um install so I'm gonna go I don't have a product key I'm assuming they want Windows 10 home so I'll press enter there okay and it should be going there you go spacebar to accept the terms enter then we'll go down to custom and here you can see we see the SSD now so now you just install Windows like normal and that should solve the problem um I'm not exactly sure 100 what the Intel vmd does um it says something about like making stuff like hot swapper I don't know um you can Google that if you feel it's important you can do some more research on finding the right driver or Hardware to put in um but I think it's some drives don't support it and that's why it doesn't show up anyways that's pretty much it hopefully this video helped you guys out thanks for watching and I'll see you all in the next one bye
