Hello, I have the following problem:

I am trying to install Windows 11 on my Samsung 980 Pro on my ASUS ROG Strix Z690-F Gaming Wifi, but it is not recognised by the Windows installer. I have already invested several hours in fixing the problem. BIOS recognises the m.2 hard drive, also displays it accordingly.
Since I can't update the ME of the mainboard due to my Intel 13700K without working Windows, so that it works in the first slot, I put it in the second slot. Do you have another solution to this problem? I have already gone through the settings in the BIOS several times. Drivers have also been made available on the boot stick, without success. Activated CSM and also made sure that the m.2 is not configured for RAID.

Please help!

Answer

I don't understand what exactly you mean by ME, but if it needs a working Windows for that, boot Windows on another old disk or USB stick, install what's missing in the mainboard and then put it back in the first slot.
