I'm installing Windows 7 from a USB on my brand new gaming rig. When I run the setup, it asks to install drivers. In any videos I've seen, the setup does not ask to install drivers first.

I put my Motherboard driver support disc into my CD drive and tried to browse for a Driver in that, but for some reason it can't find any drivers.

Any fix for this? The videos I've watched don't show a window asking to install drivers.

Skylake motherboards have USB ports that need drivers.
Sort of catch 22.
Windows 7 does not have those drivers.
The easiest solution is to load windows 7 from a sata attached dvd drive.
There is a way to slipstream the usb divers, but that is more complicated.

There are videos of it happening online if you want a visual representation of what I'm seeing. "Windows 7 Install Drivers Missing". There are some "bug fixes" that haven't helped me at all.

I don't have Windows 7 on a disc. I'll look into burning one later. How hard is it to slipstream the USB?
