Hello people, I am having issues reinstalling windows 11 on my system after accidentally destroying my partition tables (I don't care about the data loss).
and it seems like I cannot get through the install and I am getting an error about drivers for the storage. I don't have any screenshots and I've also been having issues with making a bootable usb drive through Ubuntu 24.04 LTS. < For this I tried to use DD and ventoy without success. Ventoy was literally BSOD without even trying to load the Installer. for DD it did boot and I just got to the storage driver problem. This is mostly my last hope before going to a repair shop and wasting money on getting windows 11 back on my pc

I am running a B760 DS3H AC DDR4 motherboard with an i7-13700kf with a 1tb nvme ssd KINGSTON SNV2S1000G.
You guys are my last hope.

sorry, i’m not familiar with ubuntu that much, can you breifly explain what you did with DD that made it boot

you can load drivers onto windows using have disk

wait

#

I am thinking

#

I think I got a portable dvd drive and some dvds somwhere

rotund gulch
#

if you have one that would work immediately

#

but if not, you could probably just make a new folder in the DD Usb and add the driver files there, when asked about drivers (i’m not sure which screen) you can load them

I will try something else really quickly through Ventoy but I don't think it will work

rotund gulch
#

go ahead, we’ll try DD again though

lost quest
#

I will after

Whenever I wake up

Ill also need to reenable secureboot without destroying my whole system

I am making a windows 11 usb through the media creation tool

I am using 2 usb drives to be sure it works. Both of them with the windows 11 install on it

I was able to fix it. Windows 11 Installer hates USB 3.0 without drivers so I used a 2.0 usb and it just worked like a charm
