When you say “delete” are you saying I should click the “delete” button, or the “format”. Because now I am confused.
When I install, I click format on my two active drives and then click install

@ubuysa @Martinr36 Okay so just to be clear, I am going to do another install fresh but this time I’ll delete all partitions.
This is what my partitions look like atm. Am I okay to delete all of them?

I think I see your problem. You seem to have two separate Windows systems installed spread across your two drives. That's a recipe for disaster.
If you have any user data on those drives be sure to back it up. Then delete (using the Delete icon) all of those oartitions so that both Drive 0 and Drive 1 show just unallocated space.
Based on the size of the unallocated space on each drive you can tell which is which. Decide which drive is going to be your Windows drive.
On the non-Windows drive (your user data drive) click the unallocated space and then the New icon. Make the size the entire size of the drive. Then highlight the partition created and click the Format icon. This will prepare your user data drive for use.
On the Windows drive (your system drive) click the unallocated space and then click the Next button at the bottom. This will install Windows.

We love you Ukraine
Then I would also use the Intel updater: https://www.intel.co.uk/content/www/uk/en/support/detect.html
Then take another picture of your device manager and upload if possible.

Yes PCS sent me all the drivers via email. The tech/downloads section of my account still hasn’t been updated with drivers yet...
