I just got done building my computer but I cant connect to the internet. I found out I didnt have the drivers for the ethernet controller and I need help finding it online. I am new with computers and this is my first PC I ever built. I have a ASrock h97 Pro4 as my MOBO and can someone help me find the ethernet driver?

Insert your CD with the drivers on it that came with the motherboard and only install the net driver, do not click install all just the single net driver. Custom install should let you pick just the single driver your looking for could be worded different.
Most people way overthink this usually the disc that comes with the board works just fine, net driver, USB 3.0/3.1, Audio, and SATA is all you really need. USB 3.1 could be a different beast since I have never seen anything that supports USB 3.1.
You will get mixed opinions on this but if their working with no problems then their working.

If you visit the AS Rock website (with another computer), you will be able to download the correct Ethernet controller driver for your motherboard.

Just go to the web site, look up your motherboard, and there will be a list of support items that are available for download.

The disc will work just as good for the net driver and nothing else to do.
