Motherboard drivers not installing

[tickakicka]

I just bought a Gigabyte Z170X-UD5 motherboard and when I turn on the computer it says it is installing drivers but they all fail, I also cannot install any network drivers I tried from the cd but it tells me "please wait" and never actually installs.
*not sure if the image url worked properly but if it did these are images of what is happening. If it didn't work well then it didn't work.

Can you download the drivers from the motherboard website? http://www.gigabyte.com/products/product-page.aspx?pid=5480#dl Download them from there if possible and extract them to their own folders. Once extracted to a folder you should be able to install them.

Be sure to select your version of Windows from the drop-down list!

Not sure how to quote on mobile but @dookiedraws I cant connect to the Internet to download the drivers. Unfortunately one of the drivers that refuse to actually install is the network adapter

Didn't realize you were on a mobile device.

What version of Windows do you have and have you tried rebooting? Windows usually installs generic drivers to get you up and running.

Windows 7, I've tried rebooting a few times already still nothing. I just tried selecting cd/dvd setup on the cd and now my computer is saying shutting down and has been stuck there for about 5 minutes.

What's happening now?

It said it shutdown to protect itself from damage. Now it's back to trying and failing at installing all the drivers

That don't sound good. Take out the CD and reboot and see what happens. Also, you are running the 64-bit version of Windows 7, right?

64 yes, took disc out and now three drivers have been successful...the fact that i dont understand why that worked makes me angry lol

Computers can be very strange some times! 😀

Were you able to install the network driver? If so, go to your motherboards website and get the latest drivers from there. They'll be newer than those on your CD.

Best of luck, bud. Enjoy your build.

The rest of the drivers seem to be failing but I'm going to try the cd again since it has the network adapter and the disc drive driver just installed finally
