I am working on a new setup with a Z390 motherboard and M.2 NVME drives.
This is my fist installation on M.2 so I amssume I am missing something simple.
The system posts to bios. I can see the both drives (Or one at a time) in the bios. They are recognized correctly.
Bios is set to UEFI boot and Windows 10 WHQL support is enabled.
I am using a newly downloaded Windows 10 1903 usb installer.
The Windows installer does not see either M.2 drive.
I have seen that the new installer should have the required drives. I have also loaded the drives manually for installation and it still doesn't see either of these drives.
Can anyone advise as to what I might have set wrong on the Z390?
Motherboard: MSI MPG Z390 Gamining Plus
M.2 NVME 1: Sabrent 1TB Rocket
M.2 NVME 2: Intel 660p

Here is what finally worked
I installed the drive temporarily in a laptop that had an Intel 200 series chip set.
The installer could see the drive.
Installed Windows from the laptop.
Put it into the new computer.
Set bios to ahci, ufei, secure mode on.
Booted to USB Windows 10 installer.
The installer could see the drive.
Removed the partitions and installed Windows.
Not the simpelest method for an installation.
