So I just bought many new components to build a new computer and everything arrived except my gpu. I decided to bottleneck my build by using my old gpu and still use my computer. I've got as cpu an amd ryzen 7 5800x as the motherboard B550 aorus elite v2 and 750W for power supply from corsair. (I don't know what the my gpu is but I guess it's a 1050 or 1060)
So I downloaded to a usb flash drive and checked if it was an usb stick that I could use to install windows, it was. I tried to use all the different ways to download a clean windows on the flash drive. I then tried to install it on my computer but it just froze on the windows logo (without dots) and I couldn't do anything about it. I searched online for 2 days and tried to change things in bios, to download windows differently and so on.
I then tried to install linux with ubuntu and it worked ! I could have linux but there was one last problem... Linux couldn't detect my 2.5gb/s ethernet port. I couldn't connect to the internet so it was useless, I couldn't download windows from there, I couldn't use it as a computer and I couldn't update my bios (to update my bios I need an app on windows so I can't do it without windows or without internet.
I don't really know what is the problem but I'm guessing that my motherboard or its bios that are messed up. I tried to contact the support for my motherboard but they still haven't answered and I think they won't.
If someone could help me it would save me !
Thank you in advance
