Hello all,
I recently purchased a new set of components for my pc;
i5 9600k
16gb ddr4 2600mhz ram
Asus rx 5700
msi h310m pro vdh plus
650w silverstone psu
along with windows 7 pro 64 bit
As soon as I got it, I instinctively set the driver disc aside, and due to circumstances which involved me being in a serviced apartment, the cleaner mistook the disc in the pile of boxes for rubbish and threw it away... Yeah I know.
Anyway, I have been faced with constant problems and strange behaviour I have never seen from a pc before. For instance, as soon as I booted into my pre existing windows 7, there was very erratic movement from the mouse; it was bouncing all over the place and snapped to the bottom left of the screen inexplicably , and the screen flashed a few times. I cleared my old drivers and rebooted, to no avail, and eventually just reinstalled windows. This is the strange part: I can use everything I plug into the USB ports in the bios, even identify my iPhone, but as soon as I go into windows, literally only the mouse and the keyboard are detected, and the mouse is extremely laggy and choppy. I don't have access to ethernet due to my circumstances, and any usb wifi receiver I use isn't even detected.
I have several errors in the device manager, including PCI, PCIe, USB controller, etc. I tried downloading the chipset drivers onto a hdd and loading it that way, and nothing. it doesn't even start. its been incredibly frustrating for me having dropped almost 1000 aud on this machine and still days later being met with a laggy cursor and virtually no usb capability. all I can think of at this point is either the motherboard is faulty or is not compatible with windows 7.
Please feel free to leave any suggestions, I'm desperate. Thanks
