Hi,

I need to install Windows 11 again. I currently have Proxmox installed.
I downloaded the win11 Pro ISO from Microsoft website but I'm stucked at the begining because it doesn't recognize de Disk Drive. I can see it in BIOS.
Do I need to install an specific version from Beelink?

Thank you in advance.

Hi,
Thank you for the answer. I'm gonna try to use what you shared.
Regarding your question, yes, it's a Beelink SER5 Pro with an AMD Ryzen 7 5800H, 16GB RAM and a 512GB NVMe Drive. I bought it at Amazon.

Hi again.
I'm stucked. I followed the tutorial instructions but step 6 is not happening.
I'm getting a cmd with red background complaining that "More than 2 *.wim files in C:\images"
I have added the screenshot to this post.

Can you help me to find a way to fix the problem?

Thank you in advance.

Hello there,
Thanks for your letter, may I know have you formatted the usb flash drive, and when you copy the system file to your usb disk, you need to unzip the system file and then open it, copy all the sub-folders to it, not the whole one.
and could you pls get into the bios and then send us the picture of save&exit page?thanks

Hi again.

I unzipped the downloaded file an copied the unzipped contents to the USB memory. Just like the steps 1 to 3 state:

1.Prepare a U disk（USB driver） with a storage capacity of at least 16 GB
2. Right click and select format... Format U disk to NTFS format,and change the Volume label toWINPE ,click start to finish formatting（Under the computer start options>click the right mousebutton,>select Disk Management>select your USB flash drive)
3.Copy your system files to U disk, and it must be in the root directory of U disk.

I attached mi NTFS formatted USB memory contents. (NOTE: This screenshot was taken from a Microsoft media Win11Pro VM setup in my Proxmox OS)

I also attached the BIOS screen. Thank you again for your support.

hello, if that so, how about you try to change the usb disk format to see if that could work, thanks

It was formatted with NTFS. Should I try FAT32 o should I try extFAT?

Ok, I have formatted the disk with exFAT and copied all the files the same way I did it for the NTFS formatted usb. Now it can't even start the installer. When I select the drive the dialog disappears and the prompt indicator appears on the upper left part of the screen and then the dialog appears again.
I recorded a video but unfortunately this forum web app doesn't allow to upload it.

I also tried with FAT32 but it was a no go. I got an error while copying the files because of the file size limit. This format only supports 2GB max file sizes and the .wim files are bigger than that.

So I'm stucked again. How can I get windows 11 pro installed again in my SER5 Pro?
