If you are too lazy to install daily software individually, try Ninite

I usually only install chipset drivers and GPU drivers. Then if something else doesn't work or windows doesn't have generic drivers for it, install that also. Its not hard.

All drivers for Mobo here
https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/M5A78LM_LX_V2/#support_Download
But as you will see, only Audio and BIOS available for 8.1 64 bit
Best try the Windows 7 64bit page where all will be available.
Download them and unzip where necessary to find the Setup.exe file. Rt click the file and choose 'Troubleshoot Compatibility'. Run the file using recommended settings and the drivers should load successfully. There may be instances where Windows has already loaded more up-to-date drivers from the Manufacturers, in which case opt to keep the more recent file.
