Hello,
i bought a HP Pavilion Gaming 15-ec0001na laptop at the end of last year, and to much avail installed linux on it for uni work. I have recently been wanting to game on it, as i originally intended to, and could not do it on linux due to the laptop having an amd cpu and nvidia gpu. Horrific nightmare trying to set it all up so i just wanted to swap back to windows 10. after creating a bootable USB several times and getting the "media drivers missing" and thinking it was a corrupted ISO or USB problem, i tried to install it from the same USB in a virtual machine in Linux and it went smoothly. I have tried all the tricks of pulling the USB out and putting it into a different slot, or grabbing all available drivers off the amd website for the specific laptop and trying to install them, but literally nothing has worked. Been trying for a few days now so any help would be grand. (just as a side thing when i installed linux on this latop i had a lot of issues due to the cpu being AMD and the gcard being Nvidia, not sure if its the same problem here)
I have tried everything now, even getting old ISO's of windows 10 or evening trying to install windows 7 then upgrading (but my laptop wouldnt detect my windows 7 bootable USB, but that's another problem)
The only drivers i can get to pop up in the search for drivers on the installer are intel RTS drivers also. But as i have an AMD cpu theyre point.
any help would be much appreciated.
Cheers
