Win 11 Version 24H2 Install Failed

I tried to install Win 11 Version 24H2 for the second time, and it failed for a second time. The first BSOD message gave the following info:

Your device ran into a problem and needs to restart.

Stop code: INACCESSIBLE BOOT DEVICE

After a couple of restarts, the update was backed out. I'm back on Windows 11 Pro Version 23H2.

I checked the update history and saw the Install error code - 0xc1900101.

Before I tried the 24H2 update, I did the following:

Unplug unnecessary USB devices

Drivers were updated

No issues in Device Manager

I have 30GB of free space on the drive

Any help would be appreciated,

    My USB is the D drive, and when I click on it the message "Insert a into the USB D drive". Not sure why I get that since I booted from the D drive The only drive the has anything on it is the X drive. The directory is below:

    New OSS (C:)

    USB Drive (D:)

    Boot (X:)

    Do you know of a reason I can't boot from the IOS?

    (Assuming you've extracted the Intel RST drivers to the USB setup disk.)

    Here are the instructions for loading the driver.

    Ramesh,

    Sorry for the slow response. I gave up and took my PC to Best Buy to have them reinstall the OS. Thank you for all your help.
