I have just installed a ASRock Z77 Pro3 and a Intel 750 SSD

But when i'm trying to install Windows on the SSD this happens:

?�Windows can?�t be installed on this drive. (Show details)??o:p>

??(Show details)??

Windows cannot be installed to this disk. This computer?�s hardware may not

support booting to this disk Ensure that the disk?�s controller is enabled in the

computer?�s BIOS menu.

What am I doing wrong?

You need a bios with NVMe support to install OS and make it bootable.

How can I see if the BIOS support that?

Check MB specification on Asrock web site.

NVMe is a very new storage mode, and mother board manufactures have just started adding support for it in the UEFI/BIOS of their latest boards.

ASRock has been adding NVMe support in the UEFIs of their Z97 and X99 boards. Many of them have the new UEFI version added about one week ago.

It might be a while for older boards with Intel 8 and 7 series chipsets to get NVMe support. There also MIGHT be a compatibility issue with older chipsets like the Z77 and NVMe, Intel has not been clear about that yet.

Intel has an NVMe driver available for use with the 750 SSDs, I'd give you a link to it but Intel seems to be changing things or having problems with their download site now. Are you using this driver?
