  1. I cannot re-install Windows 11 on a Lenovo ThinkstatiionP520C.


    I added another M.2 drive to the system so I would have more space on my OS drive C. I created my recovery media, and as the re-install process is underway, I get an error saying simply Windows 11 installation has failed. Can anyone help me?

    :)

    2. Create a backup: Before installing Windows 11, it's important to create a backup of all your important files and data. This can be done using an external hard drive, USB flash drive, or cloud storage.
    3. Download the Windows 11 ISO file: You can download the Windows 11 ISO file from the Microsoft website. Make sure to select the correct version and language for your Lenovo IdeaPad3,
    4. Create a bootable USB drive: Use a tool like Rufus to create a bootable USB drive with the Windows 11 ISO file. Plug in the USB drive to your Lenovo IdeaPad3.

    How to install windows 11 on new Lenovo IdeaPad3?

    If you're having trouble booting from the USB drive to install Windows 11 on your brand new Lenovo IdeaPad3, here are a few things you can try:

    1. Make sure the USB drive is bootable: Ensure that the USB drive you're using is properly bootable and contains a valid Windows 11 installation file. You can do this by testing the USB drive on another computer.
    2. Check boot order: In BIOS, make sure the boot order is set to boot from the USB drive first. Sometimes, the boot order can be set incorrectly, causing the computer to ignore the USB drive.
    3. Check USB port: Try using a different USB port on your Lenovo IdeaPad3. Some USB ports may not be bootable, so try a different one.
    4. Disable secure boot: Some laptops have a security feature called "Secure Boot" that may prevent booting from external media. Disable this feature in BIOS to allow booting from the USB drive.
    5. Update BIOS: Check for BIOS updates for your Lenovo IdeaPad3 and install any available updates. This can sometimes fix boot issues.
    By trying these steps, you should be able to boot from the USB drive and install Windows 11 on your Lenovo IdeaPad3.
