Driver download issues

[masonmca14]

I have a MSI Z87-GD65 motherboard with windows 7. I got a bad virus so i completely wiped my computer and just downloaded windows 7 again. When i put in the driver cd that came with my motherboard, only the chipset and audio drivers are displayed. The VGA, Lan, and Storage drivers are greyed out and i cannot click on them to download. If you need anymore information i will answer as quickly as possible.

Go to the MB's site and download the drivers from there: http://us.msi.com/product/mb/Z87-GD65-GAMING.html#download

its better to download drivers off the web as they are more up to date. assuming you have no internet access on that build, i reccomend downloading the drivers on a different computer and transferring the files over with a flash drive

Is there any specific order i should download the drivers in?

I downloaded a driver off the website that was posted onto a usb. But when i plug the usb into my computer, it cannot download the driver for the device... so i cannot get what i need off the usb.

Are you by any chance plugging it into a USB 3.0 port? Those won't be active until you install the driver for USB 3.0. Try one of the USB 2.0 ports on the back of the MB.

I like to install the chipset, audio, USB3.0, and LAN driver more or less in that order. That's all you really need.
