    Cannot install Windows 10 on SSD


    So I was trying to install Windows 10 on my new SSD but the set up said "We couldn't find any drives. To get a storage driver, click Load driver." and I don't know what to do from there. I thought my SSD was faulty or the cable was broken or something but I checked and they were fine. When I plugged in an HDD, the set up recognized it and said I could install on the hard drive. So it only happens on SSD.It's been making me frustrated for days so it would be appreciated if anyone can tell me what's wrong with the installation.Thank you!My spec:ASRock G41M-VS3 R02 This is a non-RAID motherboard

    :)

    Installing Windows 10 on New PC?

    I'm going to be building a new PC on Christmas and want to install Windows 10 on it. I have Windows 10 on my current PC, which I installed upgrading from 8.1 with the files on a USB. How do I go about installing a clean copy of Windows 10 on this new PC? I think I recall something about installing it once makes Microsoft recognize your hardware, but since this will be a PC I'm not sure what steps I need to take. Do I need to go 8.1 -> 10 or is there a method of going directly to 10?
