A Media Driver You Computer Needs Is Missing Windows 10
I'm a student and my university has a subscription to Dreamspark, so I got a Win10 key, along with an ISO-file from there. I'm using a Lenovo G700 and trying to perform a clean install from a bootable USB-stick.I have tried creating this USB-stick with the 'Win7 USB DVD Download Tool', using different guides from the internet with NTFS and Fat32 filesystem, launching the setup normally and through UEFI, using the 'Media Creation Tool' ( to create the USB-stick directly and downloading the ISO file first and creating a bootable USB-stick from that with all the methods above, but no matter which of these methods I use, I get the following error during installation:'A media driver your computer needs is missing.' (Unfortunatley, I am currently running Win7 Pro x64 on my laptop and the following page says, that the upgrade to Win10 only works from Win8.1, not Win7:When I try to use the 'Media Creation Tool' to instantly perform an upgrade, I get the following error:'Something happened. 0x80070422 - 0x90016'What drivers could the installation possibly be missing? I don't have any external devices plugged in, except for the bootable USB-stick, of course. I tried downloading all drivers for Win7 x64 and Win10 x64 from the Lenovo page ( and pointing the setup to them, but none of them help.
Download Missing Drivers Windows 10
Came across this issue when attempting to install the Windows 10 preview.The 'missing driver' is an SATA driver. The solution is to configure your VM to use IDE for the optical and HDD disks.Start a new install using Windows8 or 8.1 as the base configuration (parallels9x). Parallels 10 might have a Win10 option, but Win8x works fine.When you get the error 'A media driver.' Exit the installer and shut down the VM.Reconfigure the VM to use IDE (0:0, 0:1) instead of SATA under Hardware.Restart the VM.The installation from the image will continue as normal, without the error.
