Just bought a new rig and been having a nightmare of a time getting windows onto the 960.
I have searched all through this site/YT/reddit’s build a pc, and so far nothing has helped....
Hardware:
MSI M5 z370 updated to latest bios
Samsung 960 EVO in m2_1 (also tried m2_2 with no luck)
USB with windows 10 install media
All SATA devices are unplugged, but my bios and windows 10 installer is not detecting the m2 drive
BIOS:
In bios I have the raid option turned on and the m.2/optane genie turned on.
Sata mode set to raid/optane mode
M2_1/2 RST pcie storage remapping enabled
Windows 10 WHQL support turned on windows 7 installation turned off msi fast boot turned off.
Msi hardware board explorer does not detect the card in the slot and when i run the windows install, it’s not detected either.
On the storage list in bios, the drive is not detected.
I thought this might be DOA but in the RST section of the bios, it reads the drive info listing off the model, serial, size, status, controller type, and interface.
The status is non-raid.
Controller type is NVMe
Controller interface is PCIe.
Not sure what to do so if anyone can help then please I would really appreciate it. Been trying for 2 days and hours of interweb hunting with no luck.
