Error attempting USB install, 0xc0000102

Hello, I do hope I can find some help here.

I am attempting to use a live install USB created with Windows Media Creation Tool to install Windows 10 on a brand new computer. We had verified that it was reading the USB ports and there were no funky issues with the new hardware by livebooting with a linux USB, so we went forward to try and install with the MCT USB files. However, I am getting the following error screen:

A required device is not connected or could not be accessed

0xc0000102

You'll need recovery tools, etc

Is it as simple as I have it in the wrong USB slot, or am I missing something else major? For reference, if needed, I'm using an MSI Tomahawk B450 motherboard and a AMD Ryzen 3 2200G APU

Are you using RAID mode for your storage devices? If so you'll need to provide Windows Setup with the AMD RAID drivers - X470 Drivers Support | AMD .

I don't believe I am, how ever I have swapped which USB location I was using, and am now getting a 0xc000000d error, saying that I'm missing registry information on the install USB, I have to assume.

Specific text:

The operating system couldn't be loaded because th esystem registry file is missing or contains errors.
File: windows/system32/config/system
Error Code 0xc000000d

It is a clean, brand new harddrive straight from the store. Nothing previously installed on it, unless the security tape and anti-static bag were a lie somehow.
