So I just built my new pc and trying to install windows 11 pro from a USB. It gets to 10% then freezes. I tried several times as I reset the pc and still no luck... Side note.... My case came with 2x headers for usb 3.0 yet my motherboard only has 1 input. How do I get the other 2 usb to work on front panel? Specs..

When you start the Windows install and you get to the screen that asks you what drive to install to delete every partition on that drive and then select new (this will erase all data on the drive).

I got it sorted out....seems like i did a few things in the bios and when it prompted me which drive, I erased the partitions.....now the only issue I'm having is one of my m.2 is only reading 120gb instead of 4tb....it's Samsung 990 pro. I tried to do something in disk management but still shows 120gb. My next move is to try a different slot.
Lastly, my case has 2x 3.0 headers. I plugged one into my motherboard but I don't know where to plug the other? Right now, only 2 usb work on front of case.
Wheeeeeu, it's been a while building a pc.....lol

Good to see you have made it past the Windows install.  Which of those links helped you the most? ---> Did you /Have you Updated All chipset & then the MB drivers? Correct (fully) inserted into the M.2 slot is something to check .... with the PC unplugged .... as MB always has some power otherwise  If M.2 is installed correctly time to look at "Disk Management" in Windows If only 1 USB 3.0 header on MB: Then you have to choose which two ports on the front of case to use / connect. Normally you would want to use the ports on the back of the MB for any daily activities; so, 2 ports for thumb drives should be plenty

To be honest, I just went into bios settings and when it prompted me for disk I deleted all partitions....once it went past 10 % I knew i was golden..... I let windows update do it's thing.....when i get home later, I'm going to make sure MB and chipset drivers are all up to date....will definitely need to see if that drive is seated right....might change locations to see if it works. I need to see if there is an adapter or plug , maybe a splitter for both headers 3.0.... kinda want all front usb to work on the front panel.... Thank u for all the help!!

Happy to help  I've never used a USB port splitter before, your results - speed / stability might suffer when using more than 2 ports at the same time

My PC shop suggested I use a USB 3.0 adapter to usb 2.0....the speed will be lower but at least they can be used. As for the m.2 drive that is showing 128gb instead of 4tb, I've tried settings in bios, reseated it, even changed locations in the pc and it still shows up as only 128gb. I've.evem used disk management deleted the drive and reformat it only to show 128gb.

Update:
So I ordered a USB 3.0 19 pin splitter for the front panel.
I removed that other drive showing up as 128gb and bought another samsung 990 pro with heat sink and now it's not showing up in bios or disk management.... might get the pc in to have a look at it...maybe something is missing......??????
Confused

Are you trying to make a RAID setup or just individual drives? Not showing up in BIOS: 1) turn Fast Boot Off in BIOS if it is on 2) make sure to enable the M.2 Key-M slots in-use follow any directions from the M.2 Mfg & your Asus MB

Hi, individual drives.... I've turned off fast boot....searched high n low but nothing showing up in bios to turn on the other m.2 slots. When I get home tonight, I will try again to reseat the drive.....maybe I'm not seating it properly???

Looks like you have a pretty old BIOS version on that motherboard - current version is 0816 if it's the one CoolGTX linked to - I'm assuming that it is since there are may Asus X870 boards, but the TUF Gaming X870 Plus WiFi is the only " TUF X870" that I see. If it were my build, updating that BIOS would be my first step... > IF that doesn't fix the issue with the 990 Pro, THEN my next step would be full disassembly & start from scratch, reinstalling only the motherboard, CPU(with cooler of course), RAM, PSU, and the 990 Pro. > IF that doesn't fix it, then if possible, check the 990 Pro in a different motherboard (or in my case an external enclosure) to see if it's the drive itself, or a motherboard issue. EDIT: not ready to install it just yet, but after your post, I decided to hook up my new 990 Pro 4TB via my external enclosure, which will be my new OS drive in my upcoming build refresh, and Windows sees 3726.01GB of unallocated space. Also planning on lapping the CPU IHS on the 13900KS & water block contact plate during that refresh!
