Windows 10 not finding drivers booting from USB?

0

I used Rufus to create a bootable Windows 10 USB from the ISO I got from Microsoft's website. When I boot my laptop into it, it says there is a media driver missing and I can't continue the installation. It doesn't crash, it just disables the 'Next' button until I give it a driver (which I don't have).

1which SATA controller do you have? – magicandre1981 – 2015-08-07T20:58:00.987

I'm not sure. But I'm doing it on a Dell Inspiron 15R SE if that helps. – Pyroglyph – 2015-08-08T10:48:56.900

I have the same laptop and I can boot Win10 (WinToGo from a SSD attached via USB3.0) without issue. – magicandre1981 – 2015-08-08T17:30:16.157

It's fixed now, I just created and used an Installation Media instead of using the ISO. – Pyroglyph – 2015-08-09T15:43:24.337

I've had this issue multiple times since I posted this question 2 years ago. It seems to be caused by a faulty ISO. Another possible solution is to find your AHCI drivers on another computer and install them too.
