Windows 10: Driver error while installing Windows 10 on new SSD: A media driver your computer needs is...

Hi r/Windows10.

I changed my laptop's (HP 14-bs0xx) hard disk from HDD to 256 GB Transcend SSD.

I am trying to install Windows 10 using a USB stick. When I click on "Install Windows" I get this error.

What I have tried from YouTube recommendations: - checked using DiskPart that the disk is listed. - converting disk to MBR and installing through MBR partition (Rufus). - disabling and enabling secure boot. - disabling and enabling legacy mode. - using a different Windows 10 image. - also used Windows Media Creation Tool to copy windows in the usb. - tried different USB ports.

None of these measures helped. What should I do to fix this?

Thank you.

Error: A media drivers your computer needs is missing while installing Windows

Hi,



Thank you for writing to Microsoft Community Forums.



I understand that during installation of Windows, you receive an error “A media drivers your computer needs is missing.”



Ideally, in this scenario we need to install the storage drivers from the Motherboard manufacturer’s website and this should allow to install Windows. I would suggest you to download the
AMD RAID Preinstall Driver (Note) Win10 ver.1903 supported under SATA RAID/AHCI from

B450M DS3H, extract the drivers and put it in a thumb drive.



During installation, insert the thumb driver with drivers, click on Browse and navigate to the thumb drive. This should detect the required drivers and install them. Once done, you will be able to continue with the installation.



For additional information, see
"A media driver your computer needs is missing" or "A required CD/DVD drive device driver is missing" error message when you install Windows.



Let us know the results. We will be glad to help you further.

A media driver your computer needs is missing. This could be a DVD, USB or Hard Disk driver while installing Windows 10

When setup starts I can get past where you select your language and keyboard type but then I run into an error that says:

A media driver your computer needs is missing. This could be a DVD, USB or Hard Disk driver. If you have a CD, DVD or USB flash drive with the driver on it Please insert it now.

Note: if the installation media is in the windows DVD drive or on a USB drive, you can safely remove it from this step.

I created intsllation media many times. I downloaded even new Windows 10 using Media Creation Tool.
