Bought a new crucial mx500 sata ssd, for my asus x555ld, to make it a litle faster, but it does not show up on bios, it does show on list part, and if I boot from usb drive, I can see it as an option to install windows, but then it says it does not have a driver, any ideas?

    Hi Bruno,

    What error did you get with those commands and on what command?

    What happens now when you try to access BIOS?

    Hi Bruno,

    If you have CSM disabled permanently and Secure Boot temporarily disabled then that installation should proceed.

    At the very start of the Installation Process, press Shift + F10, or Shift + Fn + F10 to open Command Prompt

    Run this command and hit Enter:

    diskpart

    Run this command and hit Enter:

    list disk

    (Make note of the disk number you want to convert and enter it into the next command - replace X)

    Run this command and hit Enter:

    select disk X

    Run this command and hit Enter:

    clean

    Run this command and hit Enter:

    convert gpt

    Then close Command Prompt and restart the installation.

    Sometimes it shows like this, sometimes its the "non alocated" etc, or even makes the disk appear as something with 2Gb only, whenever i try MBR or GPT

    Hi Bruno,

    Can you now see the target drive at the start of the installation?

    What error(s) do you now see when you try to install Windows onto that drive?
