I need help trying to figure out why I can't run Cyberpunk properly

Ran into iso many complications....

First I loaded setup and the drive I wanted to install windows to need to be GPT OK. Then I kept booting into the wrong drives that had windows on it. Then I figured out that it was on the other drive.... User error. So after I got to the right drive spend 10 mins or so doing updates and then I'm finally back into Windows. Now I go to use diskpart to convert my drive. Ran into some complications with that so spent some time with it and sorted it all out and now the drive has been converted to GPT. Now after that is done. I get back into setup and Windows is finally installing but it popup's an error at the end saying that it can't make it bootable or something and to reinstall. So I tried reinstalling but that's not working. Saying setup can not create an installation folder and to check the startup log files for more information. Now I'm like I don't even know how to do that and at this point its been 2 hours and I don't want to deal with it anymore.

Have you just tried making an installation media on a USB and booting from that, choose a drive and it should just install with minimal effort

Right... It seems like every time I do something simple with a system it turns into a big freaking nightmare..... Windows should the simplest and easiest of things to do but damn....
