HELP! IM GOING INSANE! (Lenovo Yoga 6)

 Share

Go to solution Solved by GDMystic,

SOLUTION:
I had to spin up a vm of win10, pass through the usb drive, flash it with the media creation tool, then it worked

I am at my end, i cannot find it, looking into the deep cosmos of the interwebs, i still cannot find it. The holy grail of a STORAGE DRIVER FOR WINDOWS 10 (ffs). I run a Lenovo Yoga 6 13alc7. I have already contacted support and they wanted me to pay $130 for a "support tech" that will apparently help me install drivers (somehow) in a windows install environment, which i will most likely get a download link to an AMD page that is hidden from the masses. I have no idea what driver works, i have even tried RAID drivers.  Also did i mention i run Arch BTW?

Please help me.

 

PS:This Laptop is completely stock and has had no modifications made to it

 

EDIT: I am trying to install windows 10 22H2 and i am needing to load a driver to install.

 

Specs
Ryzen 5 5500u with FP6 (or FP5) socket

8GB Ram

Some 256GB OEM SKHynix drive

Okay, a few more steps back... what is happening that you believe you need drivers for 22H2 installation? I have a similar Lenovo Flex 5 that I've reinstalled 22H2 on without any drivers needed at all.

 

Otherwise, if 22H2 is the specific problem, but you can install say 22H1, why not just do that then do the Windows Update?

Whenever I get that error, it's an issue with the Windows install USB. Have you recreated the boot media? That usually resolves the issue.

I dont believe 22H1 (or similar) would have a driver 22H2 wouldnt.

That screenshot is largely unreadable. You might try cropping it to the relevant portion.

I don't badmouth others' input, I'd appreciate others not badmouthing mine. *** More below ***

 

MODERATE TO SEVERE AUTISTIC, COMPLICATED WITH COVID FOG

 

Due to the above, I've likely revised posts <30 min old, and do not think as you do.

For future reference, Shift-PrntScrn of the issue, then Ctrl-V in Paint or Paint 3-D (cropping if necessary) will be much more readable and possibly more specific to your situation, if any error codes are involved. From there, Ctrl-C in the graphic editor, then Ctrl-V in the post text editor here will usually dump it directly without the need for creating a file. Just some FYI to help you to help us to help you.
