Install Driver to show hardware

I've built a PC and tried installing Windows 11 on it by creating a bootable USB drive with the Microsoft Media Creation Tool. My PC booted up but is showing a screen that says "Install Driver to show hardware". I've downloaded all the drivers listed from the Asus support page for the corresponding motherboard model (Asus Prime B450M-A II), unzipped them and moved them to the USB, but I still get the same screen and selecting the folder with the drivers or any of the sub-folders gives me an error that says "Error: No drivers were found".

    Same problem.

    It is likely a bug in the new release 24H2 if you downloaded the iso recently.

    Using an earlier version (23H2 in my case) solved the problem.

    I am having exactly the same issue, I kept getting an nsis error with my amd driver when gaming so I downloaded the utility cleanup tool to get rid of the drivers and started it. It asked to start in safe mode and when I did that it got stuck in a boot loop and was stuck like this for hours. The way I fixed it was updating my bios to the newest beta version.

    I had exactly the same problem but solved it by using a different USB Flash Drive (another Commenter suggested that), but also installing Win10 instead of Win11. Then after installing Win10 I installed Win11 from the Update Tab in Settings, worked fine.

    I had the same problem, and changing the USB stick with the Win11 installation media solved the issue for me as well.
