I updated my Asus Z97-WS mobo with bios 2304 which is supposed to recognize NVME drives.

When I go into the bios it indeed shows up as a drive.

Windows 7 does not recognize it as a drive.

Any ideas?
 
I know that for Intels NVME ssd's you need to install there Windows driver. I don't know if Samsung has a driver.

That's a lot of work. I like Intel's way better. Easy as hell. I update the BIO's of my motherboard. Then install Windows 7. And while installing it will ask for the driver which I have on another use thumb drive. That's it done.

there was two methods in that thread.
 
this is sort of a 'duh' suggestion but i installed a 2nd SSD last night and had to do this:

- run disk management (type disk management in the start menu)
- select the new drive, right click, and select New Simple Volume

what do you mean? Format the drive first before installing windows? Sorry, I am not tracking.
