I recently built a pc, and everything turns on, works fine, and goes into bios. I used a usb drive to install windows. Once windows was a boot option, I went through the setup process: country, keyboard layout, etc. When I get to the section where I need to connect to a network however, nothing shows up. I tried ethernet and wireless connections, unplugging and restarting my router and modem, unsuccessful. I did some research and found that I might need to reinstall the wifi drivers for my motherboard. Here are my specs:

  • Motherboard: ASUS ROG STRIX B650E-F WIFI
  • CPU: AMD Ryzen 7 7700x
  • Memory: Gskill DDR5 32 GB 6400 speed ram
  • GPU: RTX 3070ti
  • Storage: Samsung Nvme 2tb 980 pro

If anybody knows how to install the drivers onto my pc, please let me know. Keep in mind that I currently have no operating system as I am unable to complete the windows setup without a network. Does anybody know how I could use a usb drive or another method to install wifi drivers on my board and how to install them? Thank you.

    Please press Shift+F10 and try to install a driver from this command prompt.

    Run in this prompt ipconfig command and show the result. Check if LAN adapter is not disabled in BIOS.

    I made sure that the ethernet connection is not faulty and works when I plug it in to another device. Here are the images, thanks.

    Do you see some error message? Please show a photo.

    Did you try to use a wire connection to a router?
