Trying to install win 11. Usb and ssd are recognized in boot menu but does not see usbs iso, or its rufus setup. I got my FW16 today.

I am getting the Error message “Default Boot Devce Missing or Boot failed. Insert Recovery Media and Hit any key. Then Select ‘Boot Manageer’ to chooose a new boot device or to boot recovery media.”

The boot manager is completely empty.
I am using the WD-Black SN770 1TB

Following this guide. Windows 11 Installation on the Framework Laptop 16 DIY Edition - Framework Guides

Well I tried updating the drivers on the SSD. Got the firmware up to date, however no difference while trying to boot.

Tried every port for the usb. Ordering new usb to try to boot off of.
