    Hello

    I have a problem with installing Windows 10 on the SSD that was added to my laptop. I want to carry out a "clean" installation. I created a bootable pendrive with a system image and tried to install it on a new SSD - but when I try to install I get the error "No media driver required by the computer". I tried to download the drivers from the Acer support on the second pendrive and provide them when trying to install - no drivers found. From what I read, it is possible to "blend" the drivers into the ISO image of Windows, but for me it is a higher driving school ... So the question is - can you start the installation of the system on the second disk from the level of Windows 10?

    Under the control of Windows USB is perfectly functional. I tried USB 3.0 and 2.0 - and lime.
    My laptop is an Acer V5-591G. Without a DVD drive - I can only connect via USB ... :crazyeyes:
    There is a similar topic on the electrode, but without any details.

    greetings

    Yes, there are two physical disks - HDD from the factory and SSD added to M.2. Currently, Windows is installed on HDD. SSD is formatted on NTFS.
    Currently installed Windows sees SSD as a "semi-hard drive" D: - so it probably recognizes it as a disk. Previously in the same configuration - the same computer with the same disks - it worked OK, but then the motherboard burned down and after replacing it is a meatball when trying to install the system on SSD.

    Thanks for the link, I sit down and try this way. :)

    edit:
    And the problem is - I can not set the "boot" partition on the SSD as active. I tried to use a apk Partition Magic to get around it - it does not want to run, spitting out the "Partition's drive letter can not be identified" error.

    Edit2:
    I tried to create BOOT partitions on HDD - the same problem, I can not mark it as active.

    And next? Because I already used this tool to create a bootable pendrive - only then came the problem with USB drivers, as I described in the first post.

    I am a "basic" computer user and I do not fully understand what to do with this virtual machine. If I understand it correctly, I will launch the second Windows - and what will it give me? Will I be able to change the active disk? Would you then install the system on SSD?

    I guess, however, it will be easier to upload USB drivers to the USB flash drive. Can anyone tell me which driver from the Acer support site to choose?

    OK thanks. :) I will try to upload it to a bootable pendrive and see it. Because if I understand correctly, installing this driver from the Windows level will not change anything?

    Finally, I did it differently - during burial I damaged Windows on HDD and had to reinstall it to run it. Luckily, I reinstalled myself as "naked", without the whole crapware from Acer. That is, as I wanted. Well, at that moment I could have it cloned into SSD, which I did with the help of EaseUS todo Backup. The final effect is and so far everything goes as fast as it should.

    DriverMSG, SystemPL - thanks for the answers! :)

    The work is done, so I close the thread. greetings

    I cloned pure Windows from HDD to SSD - as above.
