Windows 10: Im on a windows 11 boot install and its showing no disk drivers other than my usb. I am on...

My question at the top basically sums it all up

:)

 

Installing windows off of a USB stick

Step By Step from vista:
From admin cmd prompt

1. diskpart
1a. list disk
2. select disk 1 (replace 1 with your usb drive)
3. clean
4. create partition primary
5. select partition 1 (replace 1 with your usb drive)
6. active
7. format fs=fat32
8. assign
9. exit

Copy Windows Vista's DVD ROM content to the Flash Drive

xcopy d:\*.* /s/e/f e:\ (d being your vista cd and e being your usb stick)

And that's it, boot off your usb disk

 

No disks show up when I go to reinstall windows 11

I've been trying to reinstall windows 11 using an installation media due to my laptop not booting up properly, I managed to follow the steps but it had crashed early on due to the installation media being broken? So I reinstalled the media onto my drive again and followed the steps again- I think I accidentally deleted the disk I was meant to install windows on though, because it no longer shows up when I go to install it

And the only thing that shows up when I use a command to look at the disk list is my USB. And the boot list no longer shows 2 options [two being whatever I had already on there and my usb boot]

 

Installing windows 11 cant find drivers.

Hello Abdullah Rafiq1

Welcome to the Microsoft Community.

Based on your current description, it seems that you have encountered a problem when installing Windows 11 from USB media. After a lot of inquiries, woeusb seems to be a third-party USB bootable disk creation tool, which seems to be more commonly used in Linux systems, so the installation process of USB bootable disks made by such third-party tools is beyond our support.

Assuming that you really need to install Windows 11 via USB media, I recommend you to use the official tools to create a USB media and follow the steps in the following article or video to boot from USB and install Windows 11

Before installing, I suggest you enable the BIOS secure boot inside, and make sure your disk format remains in GPT format to ensure that Windows 11 can be successfully installed. Regarding the need to allocate additional space to the disk to install the Linux system, there is a disk partition tool during the USB installation process. At that time You can assign partitions according to your disks.

1. Download Windows 11 (microsoft.com)
   
   
2. Reinstall or clean install Windows 11 - Microsoft Community
   

Additionally, here is a video that may show you how to do this:

• Windows 11 Clean Installation (microsoft.com)
  
  

After the installation is complete, all your drivers will be updated by Windows to match you with the most suitable drivers for the current version. If one of your hardware is more suitable for the driver provided by the OEM manufacturer, I also recommend that you contact the HP community or HP technical support, they may have targeted insights on the driver for the specific model.

As for how to properly install a Linux system on Windows, I also recommend that you ask questions in the Github community. Members of the Microsoft section in the Github community may have encountered similar situations:

Feel free to reply if anything is unclear.
