Some advice before I ruin it please?
I am 1000% convinced that microsoft intentionally throws curveballs at AMD hardware.
In any case. Thank you for the help. I now have a functioning windows 11 system that does not have access to my internal drives. I need to do something aboutbthe obnoxious warnings every time i open any application, would love to set up exceptions per app but doesnt seem like windows allows that. I was concerned that running off an external might cause some performance degradation but it is running the new Call of Duty campaign at 1440, extreme settings, no upscaling and no frame gen at 140-170fps. So Im going to call this a win for now.

Cheap ass douche bag jerks at asus. So i went to see maybe if an older driver would work and realized under the one we botg saw, only if you expand the selection, it tells you to download the correct driver for the chip on your motherboard. Its written anywhere easy to find on the board itself, but im a pack rat and still have the box...which actually listed 2 possibilities. The first was the first listed that we both saw on the website. The other is a different brand entirely and all the way at the end of the options list. Tossed it on the thumb drive and just like that we have wifi. Thanks for all the help. I will update after i get it up and running.

When i creat the windows togo image in rufus and choose the selction to "prevent windows from accessing internal system drives" is there any way that could cause it not to see a wifi adapter? I know its probably a dumb question. Just trying to figure out why it seems blind

The only issues i have had until today were a few stalker 2 crashes and getting my controller to work with that game early on. All things related to the game. The PC and OS have been painless, easy to use and navigate, fantastic image and framefrates. The more i struggle the more i just dont want to bother. Trouble is i really enjoy shooter campaigns and EA and Activision barred most of the good ones behind windows

I mean the more i looked at it, the windows to go installation was missing a lot more then my wifi adapter. I could always attempt to run an ethernet cable and see if it fixes everything on ita own once it gets a connection.

I just built this system a month ago. Its an asus b650 tuff gaming motherboard with wifi built in.
Second try didnt work out either.
Im down to creating a regular instalation media, pulling my bazitte nvme out, putting in the one i want to install windows to. Then pulling it out and putting back in the enclosure after i go through the full installation process.

Well, so far i dont know if ita a been a total failure, as i did get a functioning windows 11 working on the external nvme. Unfortunately i could not for the life of me get it to find my wifi adapter. I tried downloading the updated drivers direct from asus to a thumb drive and installing that way. No luck. After around 2 hours of tinkering i figured id try and start over. Waiting for the drive to format now.

Some advice before I ruin it please?
So I decided to use my old laptop to create the windows drive. Its running windows 10 so no trouble using rufus on it. I have usb 3.2 2x2 enclosure and 1tb nvme coming tomorrow. I imagine creating the drive with the older laptop will take some time due to the slower usb speeds, but the motherboard on the deaktop it will be used on has 2 available 3.2 2x2 20gb/s ports.
Rufus has the options to:
1)Create windows to go
2)Remove the requirement for a microsoft account
3)Prevent the windows installation from accessing other internal drives
I figure it cant really hurt to give it a shot. Worst case scenario it doesnt work out as expected and I end up have to install the nvme in one of my open slots and setup a trafitional dual drive dual boot. Well, i supposed worst worst case would be i somehow lose all data on all drives, which would suck, but at the end of the day it just means a lot of time redownloading a few large games and reinstalling my OS.
Thanks for the tips. Ill post a follow up tommorrow evening and let you all know how it goes.

Is there anywhere i could find a guide on this. Sorry, still new to this whole thing. Also, will an external drive be able to handle running windows and demanding games? Should i put the game files on a seperate internal?
