    WIN 10 Installer can't NVMe


    morning, i have a stupid problem.

    I have a Crucial P1 500GB NVMe + GB B450 Gaming X + Ryzen 5 3600.

    If I boot it at linux i got nice access to my nvme but if i try to install win 10 on it, it didn't show up WIN 10 Installer can't NVMe :(

    I can't find any drivers for the nvm on the crucial website. Any ideas?

    Windows 10 installer don't detect NVMe drive

    I have 2 drives:

    • disk1 (SATA SSD, with Ubuntu 16.04)
      • partition1 (sda1: flag /boot)
      • partition2 (sda2: flag /home, encrypted by LUKS)
    • disk2 (NVMe SSD)

    So, the goal is to install Windows 10 on disk2 and boot it from GRUB (which is on sda1).

    What is the problem ?

    In disk-choose step, disk2 is missing. However Ubuntu 14.04 installer "see" this disk, so I assume that is software issue, rather than my hardware.

    What I tried to solve this problem ?

    • loaded Samsung NVMe drivers from this thread
    • patched Windows image using DISM tool by adding 2 updates. I followed this guide
    • tried to run Windows 10 installed on USB stick to install it

    All of them failed.

    Please help me to solve this issue.

    Windows 10 installer don't detect NVMe drive

    Thanks. This helped but only partly.

    NVMe disk is now listed in choose-disk step but installer says that its unable to install WIndows on this disk because it has MBR partition. Windows can only be installed on GPT disks in EFI systems.

    What should i do now ?

    WIN 10 Installer can't NVMe

    Upgrading to a larger NVMe on laptop

    My laptop has a 256GB NVMe and I'd like to install a 1TB NVMe.

    After installing the new 1TB NVMe how do I go about reinstalling Win 10? I bought my laptop used so I don't have the Win 10 CDs.
