Installing Windows 10 Missing Media Driver

Oct 19, 2015 I've run into an odd problem when trying to clean install Windows 10 64. 10 Clean install - A Media driver your. A Media driver your computer needs is missing. Sep 06, 2014 How to Fix A Media Driver Your Computer Needs is Missing. Add Drivers to Windows Installation. How To Download & Create The Installation Media. Jun 10, 2016 I receive the media driver missing right after setup and have not been able to find a solution after looking thru the community posts; Details are.

I'm a student and my university has a subscription to Dreamspark, so I got a Win10 key, along with an ISO-file from there. I'm using a Lenovo G700 and trying to perform a clean install from a bootable USB-stick. I have tried creating this USB-stick with the 'Win7 USB DVD Download Tool', using different guides from the internet with NTFS and Fat32 filesystem, launching the setup normally and through UEFI, using the 'Media Creation Tool' ( to create the USB-stick directly and downloading the ISO file first and creating a bootable USB-stick from that with all the methods above, but no matter which of these methods I use, I get the following error during installation: 'A media driver your computer needs is missing.' ( Unfortunatley, I am currently running Win7 Pro x64 on my laptop and the following page says, that the upgrade to Win10 only works from Win8.1, not Win7: When I try to use the 'Media Creation Tool' to instantly perform an upgrade, I get the following error: 'Something happened. 0x80070422 - 0x90016' What drivers could the installation possibly be missing? I don't have any external devices plugged in, except for the bootable USB-stick, of course. I tried downloading all drivers for Win7 x64 and Win10 x64 from the Lenovo page ( and pointing the setup to them, but none of them help.

The only driver I could think you might need is the AHCI/RAID driver. Download the one that says 'f6flpy-x64.zip' then extract the folder onto the USB flash drive. When that comes up browser to that folder from the install prompt and select the iaStor file. Should allow it to see and install properly to your drive but that is normally the only one you need. I tried your solution, but it doesn't work When I direct the installation to the folder to which i extracted the archive, I get the following list: I have tried every single entry in that list and I always get this error: 'No new devices drivers were found.' And that is an Intel system I was just verifying that.

That driver I posted should work to show the HDD in install. It is odd that none of them load the HDD. Hell it is odd that you even need to do that. Yeah, I don't get why I would need a driver for that, but it's the only one that remotely makes sense. CD-Drive is disabled (and enabling it doesn't make any difference) and USB works fine, as the installation starts from a USB-stick^^. I also posted in the Microsoft forums, but they just told me to burn my DVD at a slower speed, so I'm guessing they haven't even read my entire post, because that answer just doesn't apply at all.-, and in the Lenovo forums, where they told me that some drivers might be missing for Win10 to work at all on my machine, which doesn't make any sense either, because it says right on their own page, that the upgrade from Win8.1 to Win10 works flawlessly, so a clean install should work as well.

I'm going to try to call the Lenovo support some day, maybe they can help. And that is an Intel system I was just verifying that. That driver I posted should work to show the HDD in install. It is odd that none of them load the HDD. Hell it is odd that you even need to do that.

I have This same Problem to when trying to clean install Windows 10 on a new SSD (after already upgrading my laptop to windows 10 Home) I have a lenovo IdeaPad Flex 10 and the SSD Is a Crucial BX100 250GB.

Ok.this is the strangest f'ing solution, but it finally worked for me after spending 2 days trying to do a clean install. I got this error trying to do a clean install from a USB stick. Try installing till you get this error.then X out of the error till you get the Install screen.then move the USB stick to another port and press Install. Not sure why moving the USB stick to another port works, but it did for me. This is GOLD!!!!! F**K I tried everything on the web.

Nothing worked and this did!!!! Ok.this is the strangest f'ing solution, but it finally worked for me after spending 2 days trying to do a clean install.

If I've understood your post correctly, the only way you can install Windows 10 on a DOS-only machine is with the full version and a license key. Upgrades require a pre-existing version of Windows 7 or Windows 8 (8.1). What I have is the cd full version of IWndows 10. I tried to make a copy of the AMD driver for Win 10, but when I browse, it only can detect drive and folder, it didn't show the file. When you insert the Windows DVD, it will allow you to do a clean install, which entails deleting the entire existing partition(s) and operating system, prior to installing Windows 10.

You can search for 'clean install Windows 10', or consult this one site. Although it concerns a clean install after upgrade, the method still applies (skip to the bottom): There are multiple sites showing you how. You should not have to pre-install any AMD drivers, as those will be included in the Windows 10 drivers package and will be installed automatically during the process.

A ridiculous work around. The only driver I could think you might need is the AHCI/RAID driver. That did it, thanks very much I had to use a different driver while attempting a clean install of Windows 10 on my Dell Precision T3600 with the Intel C600 storage controller. By default, the T3600 is configured with a PERC H310 RAID controller. This is a very basic RAID controller. Therefore, I removed this controller and connected my hard drive to the onboard SATA/SAS controller on the motherboard port labeled HDD0. (For details on enabling the onboard storage controller on this machine, see I was faced with the same problem described above - the installation media didn't detect my hard drive and asked for storage driver.

The driver that worked for my machine can be downloaded from Once this driver was loaded, Windows 10 installation completed successfully.

I created an account on this site just to say: This f'cking worked for me too. How To Uninstall Realtek Audio Driver Windows 10 there. Thanks for sharing your solution haha. Computers are so illogical sometimes. Adding what fixed it for me just in case someone else has this problem and nothing above works.

Hopefully this will give another option to try if all else fails. I had the same issue. I was installing the iso with winusb on Linux. It didn't work. It was formatting as NTFS which I thought was fine but it kept failing. When I then tried to boot from it it just wouldn't.

I then made a different flash drive FAT32 and copied everything from the NTFS drive to it and booted with that. Oh it worked. That is when I came across this problem. Spent ages trying to get around it then I had a thought. When I got to the 'Install' part I removed the FAT32 drive and put in the NTFS one that wouldn't boot on it's own and it all worked fine from there.
