New SSD error in Windows

[savickach]

Hi.

I here have a laptop: Compaq Presario CQ62-a10SD
Just replaced the old, damaged HDD with a brand new SSD, from Kingston: Kingston A400 120GB SSD

Now try to install a new Windows 10 installation, using the DVD.
After starting setup, I encountered an error:

A media driver your computer needs is missing. This could be a DVD, USB or Hard disk driver. If you have a CD, DVD or USB flash drive with the driver on it, please insert it now.

I am not able to install windows any further.

I looked at the support-site of HP for hard disk drivers (for win7)
https/support.hp.com/gb-en/drivers/selfservice/Compaq-Presario-CQ62-Notebook-PC-series/4156505/model/4194132
Only found this one:

Realtek USB 2.0 Card Reader Driver

Anyone have a suggestion what I should do now? Where could I obtain the correct drivers?

Have you tried installing your OS after creating a bootable USB installer using Windows Media Creation Tools? Do you get the same error when trying to install Windows 7?

Unfortunately, installing with a bootable USB is not working for this laptop.
I changed boot priority and created a bootable USB using Windows Media Creation Tool; it is not recognized for some reason (tried all three USB-ports)
