Hey, a few years back I bought a lenovo y910-17ISK laptop and I bought aa Kingston A2000, 500GB, NVMe, M.2 for it. And for some reason, the windows I have on the HDD sees the SSD, can write and read from it. Bios sees it. The Kingston website says it's compatible with the laptop. but when I want to install a new windows onto it, the installer doesn't see it. Neither does the command prompt. I tried, pretty much everything you can find on the lenovo forums, or on youtube. Trying Raid, or AHCI, Legacy or UEFI , no luck :/ Also if I put it on raid, the os automatically tries to repair the system for some reason. The laptop has an 1T WD HDD in it by default. Tried leaving only the ssd in, no luck. Tried a hundred different intel raid drivers as for some people that work. No luck again. Any suggestions?

A few years ago, I bought a Lenovo Y910-17ISK, and it came with an HDD instead of an SSD. So recently I bought a Intel® 660p Series, 1TB, M.2 80mm, PCIe 3.0 x4. I installed it, and tried to install windows on it. Clean install, format both HDD and SSD, checked bios settings and everything. If the HDD is in it, the install gets to the first restart, and then gets stuck at "missing winload.efi" If I removed the HDD, it gets to the same part of the installation but gets stuck at "checking media..." I double checked the bios, and the SSD shows up at the information tab, but not on the boot load order. I have the boot mode set to UEFI and Sata controller to AHCI Things I tried: 3 different windows ISO, both with USB and DVD Setting the winload.efi path via console Installing windows on the HDD and cloning to the SSD, for some reason it couldn't clone to the SSD ( used MiniTool Partition Wizard )
