#FIXED!   How I Got Windows to Recognize My Kingston KC3000 NVMe SSD During Installation I ran into an issue when trying to install Windows 11 on my Kingston KC3000 PCIe 4.0 NVMe M.2 SSD. The Windows installer couldn't detect the SSD and kept asking for drivers. Standard drivers I found online didn’t work. After some trial and error, I resolved the issue by using NTLite to integrate the necessary NVMe drivers into the Windows installation USB. Here's the step-by-step process I followed: The Problem The Windows installer asked for drivers to recognize the SSD during installation. The Kingston KC3000 is a PCIe 4.0 NVMe SSD, but my laptop's BIOS and the installer struggled to communicate with the SSD. The Solution: Integrating NVMe Drivers into the Windows Installation with NTLite Preparation Download the necessary tools: NTLite: The free version can be downloaded from NTLite's official website. Windows 11 ISO: Download the latest version from Microsoft's official website. NVMe Drivers: Look for Kingston SSD drivers or download generic NVMe drivers, such as Intel Rapid Storage Technology (RST). Install NTLite: Use another PC with Windows to install NTLite and download the drivers. Step-by-Step: How to Integrate the Drivers Load the Windows ISO in NTLite: Open NTLite and add the ISO file or the install.wim file from the Windows installation USB. Select the correct Windows edition (e.g., Windows 11 Home or Pro) and click Load. Add the NVMe Drivers: Go to the Drivers section in NTLite. Click Add > Folder with drivers, and select the folder where you extracted the NVMe drivers. NTLite will integrate the drivers into the installation image. Create a New Windows Installation ISO: Go to the Create ISO section in NTLite. Choose a location to save the new ISO file and click Start. Create an Updated Installation USB: Use a tool like Rufus to create a bootable USB drive with the updated ISO. Select UEFI mode (GPT) in Rufus for modern systems. Installing Windows Boot your laptop using the updated USB. The Windows installer was now able to detect the SSD without any issues, and the installation proceeded smoothly. Summary If the Windows installer cannot detect NVMe SSDs (like the Kingston KC3000), the solution might be to integrate the drivers into the installation image using NTLite. This can be especially helpful for systems with older BIOS or missing NVMe support. ... Meer weergeven
