Hi,
I have a problem I cannot understand. Perhaps I should have put this in storage but I’ll try it here. I am doing a new build and reusing some old parts. I have completed the build and installing Win 11 Home.
I have an Asus Dark Hero Z790 board with 5 NME slots. I installed drives in each slot
1) Corsair MP700 1TB in M.1 (5.0) (New)
2) Samsung 990 Pro 4 TB M.2 (New)
3) Sabrent RocketQ 2TB (old)
4) Samsung 980 Pro 1 (old)
5) Samsung 960 Pro 1TB (old)
None of these drives have anything I care about on them. (4) and (5) had OS on them - the 980 was my old system disc, the 960 was a backup drive
I boot and post. Change the boot order to my Kingston install thumb drive.
Reboot and select disk 0 (the corsair) that was blank (never used)
It installs to 78 percent and then says “cannot complete win 11 install” - restart and it does the same thing but it had particned that drive to 100GB for system
After trying several things I manage to get a system on the 960 pro - but every time i reboot I must reinstall windows on the 960 Pro (I have done this 2x so I should say twice in a row)
I want system on the corsair and I want the others to be data drives that can be erased.
What should I do - I imagine I need to remove all the drives but the corsair and give it a go but wanted to see what you think because that would require draining my loop to remove the cover I think.
I have never had a probolem installing windows before - If I have done something silly please let me know.
