Unless you have some completely weird thing installed on your PC any windows version from 7 onwards should manage to find any and all drivers for your system.
Bootmgr is corrupt, Computer doesn't recognize the Windows 10 Installation USB-Stick and won't start BIOS/show the Key for it

Unless you have some completely weird thing installed on your PC any windows version from 7 onwards should manage to find any and all drivers for your system.
There's nothing installed at all. It's a completely new Drive and the old one got wiped. There's nothing on it. I've unplugged that USB Thing that makes the Internet stronger because it was mentioned regarding another Problem I've had before that it might help to unplug unnecessary USB Stuff. But I assume plugging it back in won't help because I would probably need to have the System installed first to connect to the Internet?
I've already had this or a similar Problem once where it didn't want to let me install Windows 10 due to some missing Driver. I wish I would know how I've fixed it back then
Edit: plugged the Internet USB Thing back in but it didn't change anything. They should include a Option during the Installation to already connect to the Internet to automatically download the necessary Driver from a Database.
I've already tried a few USB Drivers earlier today but it didn't find any of them. Didn't even show up on the List of incompatible Drivers.
I really hope this is the last Border that prevents me from using the Computer normally because this is already going on for way too long

Are you sure that is EXACTLY what it says, or have you paraphrased it?
That should be the exact Translation of the Problem.
Is there something like a basic USB 3.0 Driver that should work with every Hardware? I'm tired of trying to put Drivers on the Computer that turn out to not even work
Google translate? Possiblly exact translation, but not a good one.
I'm wondering whether your computer isn't set up to boot from the USB drive? if not, then it will say that a DRIVE is missing because it can't find a drive with a valid boot partition in order to try and start. It tries to boot from the new SSD which is blank.
Check in your BIOS that the computer is set to boot from the USB drive first, before any other drives. Sometimes there is also an option to start a boot manager that will allow you to select which drive to boot from.

I didn't use Google Translate. It should definitely be correct.
I've had a Theory that maybe the old SSD is causing the Problem, so I'll unplug it and try if this helps. Just can't try it yet because I'm currently at Work
Plus you avoid having your bootmanager placed on an unexpected drive. (as it happened to me and made drive migration an odyssey to walk through)
If you're in Germany, do you have access to c't (work, friends, library)? If yes, this might help: https://www.heise.de/ct/artikel/c-t-Notfall-Windows-2021-4954598.html . Download doesn't require subscription access, but without the articles you won't get very far.
If you feel up to it, there's also desinfec't: https://www.heise.de/download/product/desinfect-71642 . Don't let yourself get fooled by the name (and its main purpose) - it's a live Ubuntu (i.e. running from any detachable drive) with a comprehensive set of tools, including some forensics (ok, it's not Kali
).

Don't know what c't is. I assume it's a Abbreviation for something?

It's the name of a computer magazine. Oldest and still largest in Europe - https://www.heise.de/ct/ . The name got stuck from when they started as a couple of pages for computer technik in an electronics magazine.
The first one sounds promising because I'm pretty sure Windows 10 has a Option to search for Drivers online. I hope I can get it to workIf you're in Germany, do you have access to c't (work, friends, library)? If yes, this might help: https://www.heise.de/ct/artikel/c-t-Notfall-Windows-2021-4954598.html .

Ok, finally had Time (lots of Stuff going on currently) just to find out after a 5 Hours long Download that I need a additional Program and for that my Laptop (it isn't a very good one) would need a different Processor.
But I just thought about another Solution that's so simple that it's a Wonder, I didn't think about it already.
I do have a CD with a Collection of Drivers for different Windows Versions but they are only usable through a Exe File, so not useful in this Situation but I thought, I could plug the CD Drive back in, create a Linux Boot Stick and execute the File from there. If I wouldn't be so stressed, I would've probably thought about it earlier
Edit: I'm seriously getting mental Problems if this keeps going on. Now Linux claims, it can't find the Autorun File. Under Windows the CD worked perfectly.
I was so excited when I found out that Linux has a Driver Manager but when I click on it, it just claims that my Computer doesn't need any additional Drivers.
I'm currently looking at a badly translated Website that has lots of Tips about it. One of them is to use Rufus instead of the Media Creation Tool. I think I've had Problems when I've tried it once but this'll be the first Thing I'll do

Stay away from that driver cd stuff.
Just get the windows 10 iso from windows. It will have a working OS without drive installation.
I think you need to look in your bios and find your harddisk settings. Best is to reset the bios to factory default
Look for these kind of options in bios:
Set it to AHCI and try your windows install.
Delete all the partitions you have on the ssd. Let windows create new ones

Just tried to install it from a USB Stick that was created with Rufus but it still shows the same Problem. Every time I get a free Day it gets completely ruined because I end up sitting on this annoying Problem the whole time.
Could it work if I try to install Windows 7 and upgrade it to Windows 10 or would this probably be just wasted Time?
Sorry for the cropped Image. It didn't want to upload otherwise
Thanks I'll try this later
I don't know if this will help, but it looks like this guy had the same error message and managed to sort it out. Might give some clues, even if the hardware is not the same as yours. And I think he is speaking German!

The Motherboard should be a n68-gs4/usb3 fx
Don't know about the CPU and can't really look inside the Computer at the Moment because it's already so dark here, the Light isn't good enough to properly see inside it and additional to this, the PC is standing in a Place where it can't be turned very good to take a better Look (small Room)
Thanks, first I'll try if it'll work to install Windows 7 and upgrade it to Windows 10 and if this doesn't work, I'll watch the Video. This is probably one of the most frustrating Problems you can run into during the Windows 10 Installation
