Simply download the drivers to a USB flash drive from the computer that you are using to post here. :)

But do check to make sure the USB port will work with anything else you plug into it before updating. You simply may be having an issue with the adapter itself. Try something else in the USB port and go from there.

A ninja asking what he should do! I totally don't believe you're a ninja now. I'm sorry, but I don't.

Now, as for the issue you are having; try uninstalling the drivers for the Wi-Fi adapter and reboot to see if you get that message again. If not, reinstall the Wi-Fi adapter drivers and give it another shot. By the way, did you install Windows on the SSD or mechanical drive?

I installed it onto the SSD from my Flash Drive and I can't uninstall the drivers because the desktop freezes up like I can't even move my mouse.

With the pc turned off, double check to make sure all of the cables are securely connected. Also, why not disconnect the other drive and the wi-fi adapter completely, and see if the pc freezes afterwards. This can at least let us know if there is something going on with the SSD. Are you using the included SSD optimization software that is usually included with an SSD?

Remove that Windows installation flash drive as well before rebooting.

No I have to run a disk for it (It was just a cheap $40 adapter) and How do you recommend getting my MOBO drivers without wifi cause Ethernet isn't possible I'm upstairs in a two story house. I guess I could carry it down stairs

Okay I plugged a random flash drive in and it worked maybe I should let you know what adapter it is cause I have it on this computer as well but when you run the disk there is an option to install a driver for it or do a setup
