Installed Ryzen 1200 and B350 mobo. None of amd's chipset driver software detects the CPU (detected in bios) and don't have a DVD drive. Running windows 8.1 praying I don't have to get windows 10. I have been having all kinds of problems with the CPU such as internet sometimes going to limited until I unplug it. Programs which normally took up no respurces in the background randomly take up 25% of CPU power. Anybody?
 
Solution
The other route is upgrade your win 8 to win 10, you still can do it for free: https://www.cnet.com/how-to/microsoft-windows-10-free-upgrade-offer-assistive-features/

I don't have a DVD drive so I downloaded the latest bios and tried to get the AMD chipset drivers from the AMD website. Needless to say after letting the auto (and manual) installer go for a bit neither were able to detect that any part of my build was AMD
