    Win. 10 installer asks for drivers but can't recognize them.


    Having given up on a Linux OS I tried to reinstall Win. 10 with an ISO used successfully a few months earlier to reinstall Win. 10; this time a message came up about missing an unspecified Media driver. I found the likely one and put it on another flash drive; it didn't show up in the installer option to browse etc. so I extracted it's contents - to no effect; so a backup Windows installer was and presumably is of no value since some drivers may be missing somewhere and can't be recognized even thought they've been downloaded from the manufacturer of the device!

  3. Windows 7 wont install drivers

    i dont think anyone here understands what your asking either when its nearly a 90% english dominated Tech forum.
    Step 1
    reinstall windows from scratch
    Step 2
    install all drivers from the cd that came with the god damn motherboard *common sense*
    Step 3
    update windows
    Step 4
    install misc etc crap like flash java etc etc
    Step 5
    Install GPU drivers
    Step 6
    go back to using your pc without issue.
