I just built a PC a few days ago, but I can't connect to my Wi-Fi. I tried to install a network driver as suggested, but I got a message that says "Cannot install any drivers. Intel(R) Adapter not present in the computer".

Can anybody help me?

My motherboard is MSI ATX Z97 LGA1150.
My Processor is Intel i7
My OS is Windows 7 64 bit.
My GPU is GTX 970

Like most desktop motherboards, I don't think that motherboard comes with an integrated WiFi adapter, it only has a LAN port for a wired connection. I can't check 'cos MSI.com is currently down, but I'm fairly sure it doesn't have built-in WiFi.

If you want to use WiFi with that board you need to install a WiFi card or use a USB WiFi adapter.

As Phillip said this motherboard doesnt have a wifi adapter so the drivers cannot find the piece of hardware their made for...The only choice is to buy a pci wifi card or an external wifi adapter to connect to your network...
