Windows 10: ASUS B350-Plus wont boot windows off of a Samsung 970 Evo

I have gotten windows 10 onto my 970 Evo, but my computer will not boot into windows. When I override boot onto the 970 Evo the screen goes black, then there is a small white line in the corner for a few seconds, then it takes me straight back to BIOS. PLEASE HELP!

Problem installing Win 10 on 970 Evo Samsung

Hi,

I would like your help for a problem i am facing. I bought a MSI B350 PC MATE motherboard (7A36-003R) and I wanted to build a new pc but when i try to install Windows 10 x64 on Samsung 970 EVO NVMe M.2 at the step where I select the M.2 disk to install
it popups a message saying:

"Windows cannot be installed on this disk. This computer's hardware may not support booting to this disk. Ensure that the disk's controller is enabled in the computer's BIOS menu."

I have tried every possible combination on the BIOS/UEFI but every time i get the same error. I have left only the SSD and remove every other SATA connection with no luck. The installation is made from USB which is made with Rufus.
Is it any configuration that i am missing?
Every suggestion would be very helpful.

On the other hand with the same configuration on motherboard i can install Ubuntu with no problem which means that motherboard and M.2 are OK. Is it any configuration that i am missing?

gigabyte Z370 HD3 + Samsung EVO 970 won't install Windows 10

Newly assembled system:

• Gigabyte Z370 HD3 V1.0 motherboard
  
• Intel i7-8700 CPU
  
• 2x DDR4-3200 16GB RAM (F4-3200C16D-32GVK)
  
• Samsung EVO 970 500 GB M.2 SSD (MZ-V6E500)
  
• Thermaltake TR2 S 500 W PSU (TRS-0500P-2)
  
• Deepcool Tesseract case (seems doesn't matter)
  

All components come new, unpacked.

Windows 10 Pro installation failed at the step "Getting files ready for installation." when about 70-80% complete.

I used both the original Windows 10 Pro DVD and a USB stick prepared by a Microsoft tool; the result is the same.

I tried to use the pre-installation SATA driver from the Gigabyte website.
Once I installed this driver at the step "Where do you want to install Windows", my M2 drive had disappeared from the list.

The same situation repeated with another set of components.

By the way, when I try the same set of components but with an ASUS Z370-P motherboard, there is no problem with Windows 10 installation.

I still need to assemble some systems with Gigabyte motherboards.

Update: It was easy to install Windows 10 on the SATA SSD. Same conditions: Gigabyte motherboard, but SATA SSD instead of M2 SSD.

Any suggestion what to do in order to install Window properly?
