Windows 10: Win10 won't detect Corsair Mp510 SSD - clean install

Working with a new machine,


AMD Ryzen 5 3600, MSI B450 Gaming Plus Max motherboard

Corsair Mp510 960GB NVMe2 SSD

Asus RIB RTX2060 6GB graphics card installed


Bios updated and configured for UEFI setup, no legacy options enabled, and AHCI for the SATA, not Raid.


Install from clean fresh USB install - OS does not recognize the SSD drive... can't find any drivers to make it discover.

However, break out during install to DISKPART and sometimes i can see the drive, and indeed partition, format etc... other times i can not.


Any input or suggestion, been struggling with multiple combination, no luck.

If i install SATA drive it will discover and install to SATA - so i know the USB media and generally the BIOS config is work. And Windows will not see the SSD even as 2nd disk to the SATA.


Just can't find way to get the SSD NVMe to recognized and install as disk 0

5. Get to "Where do you want to install Windows?" and the SSD is not listed

Problems:

1. Samsung does not offer a driver for the 850 on their website

2. Cannot locate driver elsewhere

Unsuccessful Mitigations Steps Attempt:

Clean Install Workaround for Vista

You may remember this news story on techPowerUp! a couple of days ago relating to the lack of clean installs when using the Upgrade Editions of Vista, which required an old OS to be installed. However, Paul Thurrott has managed to find a workaround for this issue, which ironically lets users do a clean install Vista without any previous version of Windows, albeit a little tedious. Here are the steps:

• Boot from the Windows Vista Upgrade DVD as normal
• When prompted for a product code, leave this blank
• Select the version of Vista you have purchased and let Vista install
• When you boot to your desktop for the first time, run the Vista setup from Windows
• This time enter your product key
• When asked whether you want to do an Upgrade of Custom install, select custom and choose a clean install
• Windows will now install for a second time and you should be able to activate it

Remember, these steps are only advised for use in order to achieve a clean install of Vista, it is only legal to use the upgrade editions if you have previously purchased the appropriate version of Windows.
