Missing NVSTOR.sys (Windows 10)

Hi guys, I'm trying my first lite version of Windows 10 Pro so I followed a couple of videos on what would be good to remove. The ISO starts the install just fine but then it goes to reboot and after it does BSOD right away and it tells me the NVSTOR.sys driver is missing. I have had no luck in finding what it was I removed or changed that would have deleted this driver so anybody have an idea??
 
NVSTOR.sys is the driver for NVIDIA's SATA disk controller found on a handful of older motherboards. The driver is normally bundled with the GEForce graphics driver installer. If you don't have such a device, then you need to figure out why Windows thinks it's needed.

Maybe sharing your PC's model number would help.
 
If you know where you installed the missing driver from, extract those files into a folder. Under NTLite's Drivers page, add that folder and they will be added to the image. Add the driver set to both install and boot images, so all disks are immediately detected.
