How to Use
- Plug USB into your Lenovo Xiaoxin
- Boot → press F2/F12 (or whatever enters boot menu on your model)
- Select **UEFI:
** (not legacy/CSM) - Ventoy menu appears → select
Win11_25H2_English_x64_v2.iso - Windows installer starts
If SSD Not Detected (common Lenovo Xiaoxin issue)
Windows 11 installer may not see the NVMe SSD — this is the Intel VMD/RST driver problem. You’ll need to:
- Download the Intel RST F6 driver from Intel’s site
- Extract to a second USB
- At disk selection screen → Load Driver → browse to the extracted folder
- SSD appears → proceed with installation
Bonus: Multi-ISO
Ventoy supports multiple ISOs. You can copy Linux ISOs, rescue disks, etc. alongside Windows:
sudo cp ~/Downloads/ubuntu-24.04-desktop.iso /media/$USER/Ventoy/
All ISOs show up in the Ventoy boot menu.
