I just installed a new SSD and I am not able to find the original disk that came with my ASRock MB
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813157281&Tpk=asrock%20990%20fx%20extreme3

When I open the Device Manager it has a question mark next to the "ethernet controller" and the "USB controller"
I was able to find the drivers to download on ASRocks website but I honestly don't know what ones I need to download and how to install them?

Any help will be greatly appreciated

IT's up to you whether to save them long term. Perhaps you can store them to a USB stick as a replacement for the missing disk. Since ASRock distributes them as .zip files there's nothing to run as: you have to extract it first then run the setup file. So: download, extract, run.

Do the audio, lan, usb3 corresponding to your OS. The all-in-one AMD won't hurt but it might not be necessary.

Under the "Display adapters" AMD Radeon HD 7700 Series is listed. I was able to update the GPU drivers after downloading the AMD Catalyst Control Center.
I see the downloads for Broadcom and Etron for the USB. Should I just click the link for the proper OS and "run" or save them?
Also I see ASRock has a "All-in-1" Driver download but I have been somewhat hesitant to use this as I don't really want any unnecessary utilities that I wouldn't use or don't really need.
Are there any other drivers listed that I really need to update besides the Audio, Lan, and USB? What is the CPU Cool-N-Quiet?
Sorry for the barrage of questions just wanting to get everything set up right, thank you again
