SSD and HDD

[Sa1tama]

Hello! i wanted to install drivers for my new GPU, but it needs a newer versions of Windows. To upgrade windows, i need to have 8gb of storage which i don't have, so i want to create an USB windows installer, but it says that at least 8 gb is needed to perform this action. What do I do?

If you don't have enough storage to use the Microsoft tool, you can download the ISO and use UUI to make an installer.

Maybe I'm not understanding the issue.  You need an 8GB USB.

Ah so your game drive is on a separate drive to your boot drive right?

Windows on SSD and game drive on HDD?  If you create a bootable drive and install the windows iso using the curation tool onto an 8gb usb drive you should be able to boot into the usb and when you come to install windows it'll give you an option to delete everything off your SSD and install windows onto it and it shouldn't effect your  HDD. There are plenty of videos on youtube and guides on the internet

I think I used these 2 videos. Just be sure you defiantly don't need anything on your boot drive if so back it up also don't clear the wrong drive and that you have a windows key you can use.
