The file is on the right place but the Z800 has only a legacy Bios.

Nobody an idea?

Successful install of Windows 10 from DVD using Gigabyte P67A-UD3R-B3 (Socket 1155) legacy bios version F9 onto Adata SX8200Pro M.2 SSD using Silverstone ECM21 PCI-E x4 adapter card using BDU_v2.1.2019.024b Clover install on USB stick.


Copy NvmExpressDxe.efi


To EFI\CLOVER\drivers\BIOS

After booting to Clover, boot to device "Run Microsoft EFI Boot From EFI"


Unfortunately only running at PCI-E 2.0 speeds so it seems but still 10 times faster than my old Intel SSD!




Have now installed the Clover boot loader onto the old Intel SSD as first boot device instead of USB stick.

I had that error when trying to install Windows 10 via USB stick.

Make a DVD install disk and try that.

Simply copy NvmExpressDxe.efi from X:\EFI\CLOVER\drivers\off to X:\EFI\CLOVER\drivers

Make sure the new SSD drive is MBR and not GPT..

Thanks!

I don't know it just worked, I didn't do anything special but the instructions on the first page work for that older version of Clover and the newer version has a slightly different directory structure, read my post again.

I created the DVD using Windows 10 media creation tool. Make sure the DVD is in the drive before you boot Clover?

Your board is completely different to mine.

If you cannot see any drives then I would say the driver is not loaded, so putting the driver in the correct folder would be my first assumption to fix your issue.

@nobody666

I did it exactly the same way you did without success.
The issue is that after booting from USB I get this instead of this

I also tried a bigger USB stick. My mainboard doesn`t recognise USB stick formatter on FAT32, only exFAT or NTSF.

@Aelius

That screen is what you get if you choose to exit clover, so it appears that clover is not running on your system for some reason.

@nobody666

I just tried it out on another computer with UEFI. It looks the same but in Boot manager I can see all the devices connected to mainboard like hard drives, DVD drives etc. It doesn`t boot either. I give up. I`m going to install SATA SSD drive.

Hi and this is my first time that i've my post on here. Although I've followed the instructions to create a clover usb, but it never create a clover boot partition and a noname partition, it only turn the disk into clover as a whole. I didn't change anything in the BDU but it never works.

Windows doesn't like MBR NVMe style drives (it assumes NVMe = UEFI boot = GPT, and it get's an error when it tries to do GPT only things, to a MBR drive).

To get past that error, I guess you would have to install it fresh on GPT style drive (sadly you can only convert a MBR boot drive after you wipe it :/).

Also, I cloned my existing C: drive to the nvme, is it possible to boot into the drive in clover without installing a fresh windows and losing my personal data?

Yes I eventually managed it, search back through my posts for the details, but I ended up with an MBR drive which wouldn't upgrade when the first big windows update came around. So AFAIK it's a dead end...

Yesterday I tried the latest version of Clover and created a new Windows installation USB. Now it seems that Clover can access NVMe drive and I can perform Windows installation. Clover doesn`t boot to GUI at all, though. I don`t know why it that. It doesn`t work on other computers either. Any idea how to fix it? There`s no point to use it when autoboot doesn`t work.
