Hello community!

I have been trying to update my Xiaomi 11 from MIUI 12 (21.8.26 Beta) to the latest MIUI 13 (22.2.23 Beta).
I follow the instructions as stated below:

- Download our ROM zip file
- Unpack downloaded zip file in the PC
- Reboot your device to fastboot mode (press volume down + power)
- Connect to PC via USB cable
- Run fastboot installation script from unpacked zip according your PC operating system:
--- For Windows OS - windows_fastboot_update_rom.bat
--- For Linux - linux_fastboot_update_rom.sh
--- For MacOS - macos_fastboot_update_rom.sh

But when the Command Prompt appears it says, "Waiting for device...", and from this point, nothing happens. I do not know what to do in this case. I changed my laptop to a new one some months ago where I originally changed the original Chine ROM to Xiaomi.eu. Could this be the reason for this issue? Do I need to install something else before trying to Fastboot? Please help!

P.S. My bootloader is unlocked and I have the USB debugging enabled through Developer options.

Thank you :)

Gogocar is right.. when plugged into USB and in fastboot mode Device Manager should detect the phone properly. If there is an Unknown Device it means your missing the driver
