How did you configure the drive? (Please show the VM config).

If you set it to `virtio` or `scsi` with the `virtio-scsi` controller, you first have to install the driver so windows can detect the drive, see https://pve.proxmox.com/wiki/Additi...rt_Windows_to_use_.28VirtIO.29_SCSI_.28KVM.29

Does it boot if you detach the drive, and then configure it again using `ide` or `sata`? (don't forget to change the boot order in the Options panel of the VM).

i cant install virto driver before windows setup because i used ovfimport tools for import new VM

i founded solution for this error, i switched to cmd on trouble shooting and use drvload to load vitowin driver after that i used disim command to install driver on windows drive then restart windows and it works fine everythings
