環境:

acer主機

Intel 13代 cpu

pcie ssd

異常狀況:

安裝win11，一直抓不到ssd硬碟。

上acer官網找到了irst的驅動，安裝時這個驅動也不支援，還是找不到硬碟。

上intel官網抓到最新一代的irst驅動，卻是exe檔，在win11安裝過程，也沒辦法安裝

解決過程:

intel官網抓到最新一代的irst驅動是exe檔，需在其他台電腦，用powershell指令，去解壓縮，裡面就會有driver這個資料夾。

安裝win11時就可以透過裡面的檔案，載入pcie ssd。

1. 在包含SetupRST.exe檔的目錄中打開終端，方法是右鍵按兩下目錄並在此處選擇「在終端中打開」或「打開 PowerShell」。您可能必須在目錄上按 SHIFT 鍵，才能看到要選擇的正確選項。
2. 透過執行命令 ./SetupRST.exe -extractdrivers SetupRST_extracted 來解壓縮預安裝驅動程式

Environment:

Acer desktop/laptop
Intel 13th Gen CPU
PCIe SSD

Issue:

During Windows 11 installation, the SSD drive is not detected.

The Intel Rapid Storage Technology (IRST) driver downloaded from the Acer support website was loaded during setup, but the SSD still could not be detected.

A newer IRST driver was found on Intel's website, but it was provided as an .exe installer, which cannot be installed directly during the Windows 11 installation process.

Resolution:

The latest Intel IRST package downloaded from Intel's website must first be extracted on another computer.

1. Download the latest SetupRST.exe from Intel.
2. Open a terminal (PowerShell or Command Prompt) in the folder containing SetupRST.exe.
3. Run the following command:

.\SetupRST.exe -extractdrivers SetupRST_extracted

This will extract the pre-installation drivers into a folder named SetupRST_extracted.

To open a terminal in the correct folder:

• Right-click within the folder and select "Open in Terminal" or "Open PowerShell window here".
• On some Windows versions, you may need to hold the SHIFT key while right-clicking to see the appropriate option.

4. Copy the extracted driver files to the Windows 11 installation USB drive.
5. During Windows 11 setup, select Load Driver when choosing the installation disk.
6. Browse to the extracted driver folder and load the IRST driver.

After loading the extracted driver, the PCIe SSD will be detected and Windows 11 installation can proceed normally.
