So I recently acquired a Samsung EVO 960 256GB nvme drive.
I decided that would be my main boot for my desktop and I proceeded to remove my single HDD in preparations of a Clean Windows 10 installation. I made a UEFI Windows 10 installation on my USB and proceeded to do as many guides say. I set CSM to Uefi only on Storage options and disabled secure boot. Everything is smooth during installation, I select the Unassigned volume for my nvme drive and click "New" to make a new partitions for windows. Windows installation makes the 4 partition it needs and I click install on the Primary. Everything loads great, I get to the last point at which Windows requires a restart. Now this is where it all goes downhill, after installation UEFI doesn't recognize any Windows Loader under boot options. So as a result it keeps loading into my USB Win 10 Installer. Is there any fix to this? I know Windows installs into the NVME ssd because I have sticked it in my laptop and under windows I can see all the files for a regular windows installation. Only UEFI boot option is missing and as a result it never boots into my NVME. Also, drive seems to function completely on my laptop i can use it perfectly as a secondary drive so in that regards can I assume the drive is working? For Windows 10 ISO I have tried multiple at this point. I have tried: Windows Media Creation Windows 10 (Redwood) Windows 10 Dell Creation Tool I have also tried cloning a friends 960 EVO Windows installation but the same issue still persist, UEFI Windows Loader doesnt show on my Bios Boot Options and as a result I can't boot into it. So I am wondering if it's an issue with my motherboard. I have spent close to 15 hours doing the above ![]() My hardware is as follows: Asrock X370 Taichi Ryzen 1600 MSI GTX 1080 Ti Sea Hawk EK 16GB DDR4 3000Mhz (Set at stock 2113Mhz no XMP enabled yet) Samsung 960 EVO NVME Drive 256GB TP-Link 900 WiFi PCI-E Card At this point I still haven't re-install any other drive yet to avoid windows misconfigured installation. Any help is appreciated, thanks. ![]() |
