"No device drivers were found" when installing Windows 10 using a USB

I have just finished a PC build and when booting windows it tells me "No device drivers were found". Many users have said simply to switch USB ports to 2.0 ports but my PC case is a newer model and only has USB 3.0 ports. Many have also said to use an ISO file on the USB and that hasn't worked either. My last effort was to use an entirely different USB stick and install using Rufus but this too was a failure. Is there any way for me to boot my computer?? HELP!

Hi and thanks for reaching out. My name is Jan an independent Microsoft Advisor and a user like you. I'll be happy to help you out today.


Download the latest SATA or AHCI drivers from the Manufacturer's site and copy to another USB

Download and create your Windows bootable USB using Media Creation Tool

Insert the installation media

then when this error " No device drivers were found" shows again

insert the USB with drivers

Then click load driver or Browse

Then install drivers.
