I found drivers that windows update could not locate.
C-Media mass storage controller for my multi card reader.
I tried installing them from device manager by updating drivers button and locate the unzipped folder, but it says unable to locate system file.

There are only 3 exe files, one is called cmiboot.exe which hopefully is for the device to function, 1 .cat, 1 .sys, 1 .ini and 1 .dll files.
 
Hello... an EXE file starts an auto install of drivers... and INF file is needed to tell windows device manager what it is, the hardware name and type... the sys,ini, and dll are the functioning and installed drivers... these have to be compatable with your OS version to be installed.
 
Hello... direct me to what you are trying to install for further directions and steps please... also if your hardware is not properly installed to your motherboard or enabled in your BIO's, windows will not see it and install any drivers for it... please include your motherboard, brand of PC, Pictures, and Windows version for the fastest help I can offer.

Thank you for taking your time for assistance.

I configured the bios the following order

First boot dev: Hard Disk
Second >>: USB FDD
Third >>: CD-ROM

no matter the boot order its not working..

before i begin explaining, there is a .txt files outside the instalation folder, I don't know whats the good use of it.

Secondly, these are the driver files, no installer unfortunately.

And lastly, this is the error I get installing the files from Device Manager.

In translation it means that its unable to locate the system file.
It seems drivers are compaitible but its unable to install them.
