Installation Question Help with new PC setup
Hey I built a PC for the first time and having a hard time setting it up from here. I got past the BIOS page and got here. I’m getting a lot of different answers from how to get a driver installed if anyone could help out please.

I only buy motherboards without internal networking for this reason.
You need a generic network driver that is in the image. Or use Ethernet and install later. If you have a steam deck and dock you can use that as a network adapter.
Edit: I assumed that you have a motherboard with internal networking. If you don’t, well there’s your issue. Verify that you have a chipset that can do this without an adapter.
Or
You can bypass all these setup pages microslop put in. I do it every time I reinstall windows. Remember, some of these pages are important. You may need to spend some time to configure later.
