    No internet on rehashed computer

    My old PC (Sons old gaming PC) crapped the Motherboard a while back so I just got around to an upgrade. Bought a new Motherboard and CPU and upgraded a bit - the GPU will have to wait another month, so just used the old one.

    All fired up first time, no dramas and all my stuff is there on the old drives, great.

    Only issue I can see is that I can’t connect to the internet now. Says there’s no network adaptor but no idea what that means or how to fix it. A quick Google didn’t enlighten me.

    Motherboard is an Asus ROG Strix B550-E Gaming unit with wifi.

    Any ideas from the brains trust? I’m pretty good at screwing a PC together but if it doesn’t work when I turn it on I’m screwed... No internet on rehashed computerNo internet on rehashed computer

    Modem is running everything else fine - the drivers all seem to be missing if I go into device manager - lots of yellow !

    No CD and no optical drive anyway to load them. All done from the internet - but not sure what I’m looking for or how to do it. I can download things onto a flash drive if I know what to look for and how to do it, but that’s the bit I’m struggling with.

    Have to remember it needs to be a description in laymen’s terms, I’m fine with the hardware and every other build I’ve done has worked fine, just this one I’ve run into issues with. I’ve always used Asus MB’s and never had this issue, so could still be operator error - is there anything in the BIOS I should have changed - I just left that as it came.

    Thanks.

    If you have found the drivers.
    Put them on a USB stick - unzipped.
    Device Manager
    Look for the yellow !
    Update driver
    Have disk / browse
    Point it to the USB stick
    And hopefully it will update your drivers from there.

    Some manufacturers give you a driver exe file that when you run it, automatically extracts and installs the drivers for you.
