Windows 11 doesn’t recognize an m.2 NVMe in a pcie slot after upgrade
Hey all, Bought a new HP Omen 30L-1139 it has expansion slots for upto 3 m.2 SSDs. I swapped out the 2 SSDs from my old computer to the new one and everything worked as it should. I had this work...
Well, after a few weeks of experimenting myself, the only way I got it to work was to remove the SSD and reinstall windows 11. When that was done and all upgrades completed I reinstalled the SSD, now it finally recognizes it. Took me allot of trial and error to get it to finally work. I even tried the disk HP sent me. It didn't work either. I had to use the window setup from Windows itself, well all that did was format one of my SSD with all my stuff on it.
Suffice to say, remove the spare ssd from your computer, upgrade it or reinstall Windows, when that's done reinstall the SSD, it should recognize it then.
Good luck!
Thank you I appreciate your answer. I have done this as well. Windows update cannot find any appropriate driver. Dell diagnostics tells me there is no driver installed and the one they propose leads to bluescreen on reeboot. I am working with the Dell user community on the subject which seems specific to Windows 11 since rverything is working with Windows 10.
