I thought it would be a walk in the park, to install Microsoft Server 2022 on this good 15 years old IBM x3650 M1,,, it had other plans!! I spend all day messing with this, got it installed in the end. And it all turned out to be my M.2 SSD that did something, when it had to boot,, or Server 2022 is missing a driver for it.

I know how it is to forget password - I did it with my administrator password for printserver.. 😂 But I'm can use it as user.. I installed Ventoy on my installation USB stick few days ago - learned from Your's videos about that tool.. 😉 Before that I every time reinstalled ISO on that USB stick when I needed to change version etc.. But I'm a Linux guy - installed Ventoy in Linux terminal.. 😂 Looks like Win server 2022, indeed, dropped support for older hardware.. That's sad.. From this video we can learn, that server 2022 won't work on older servers.. Thats gives good informational value for this video.. 👍

Have you considered to setup a WDS server for your installations? It’s not great for mass deployment (yes I know MDT and other tools exist), but if you just want a standard Windows install process and maybe even preload some drivers, I believe it’s a great choice. It basically replaces your USB drive with a network connection at this point.

What I can see from the error on the screen it looks to me as if when you start up the system to install windows server 22 at the drive selection-screen you need it to allow for the driver to be installed so what you would need to do is find the latest windows drivers for the card you're using to boot from and what would normally need to happen is you would need to install those even though you would see the drive-ins the windows setup like you normally would if you're using a standard size a hard disk that would be needing the drivers installed for the card you're using because windows server 22 may have a driver is broken
