Clean install - SSD appears in BIOS, Not Windows

[Microsoft Windows]

I needed to do a clean install after the “blue screen of death”. I created a USB boot drive, however although my SSD appears in BIOS, it will not show up as a drive that Windows can be installed on, it isn’t an option. I went so far as to remove the drive and reformat it to have a clean start. None of that helped. This drive is in perfect working order as I can insert it in a disc reader on my other computer and it is all fine. What can I do to make the drive appear? The motherboard is Asus Prime z790-V AX. My memory is Crucial T500 2tb. Thanks!
