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".

    JUST change USB porto, you need to use one of the motherboard port from behind the pc!!!

    So, change USB port, restart pc and retry install... and magically it work ^^

    This is what I had to do. I never realized that the USB hub I use for everything else would cause this issue. In hindsight, it makes sense but I was scratching my head for over two days and found this comment.

    Thank you!

    It seems that there is bug for Windows 11 24H2 installer on some configurations. Try with 23H2 and then updating to 24H2 through normal Windows update.

    For those that are using Linux, you cannot use Etcher to create the ISO file on the USB. You can either use WoeUSB or go onto a windows and create the ISO file with the Installation Media on their website.
