  1. Windows 10 Install Failure: "A media driver your computer needs is missing"


    I'm trying to install Windows 10 on a Lenovo P520. It used to have Linux on it. I wiped the partitions off the disk before trying to install.


    Image of the error is below don't know why it's upsidedown. The workstation has a Samsung NVMe PCIe SSD drive. My understanding is that no extra driver is needed for this, nor can I find one. And if instead of clicking 'Install' at the first screen, I do 'Repair my computer' and launch a console and then diskpart, I can see the disk and manipulate it. Maybe it's not the disk that's the problem, but then what?
