New built computer, motherboard can't properly install drivers

[LordFarthead]

Hi there, thanks for taking the time to look at this.

I just finished building a brand new computer with an ASrock H110M-DGS motherboard. After it successfully booted up into the UEFI I installed Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit onto a new SSD using a USB stick configured to act as the boot drive plugged into a USB 3.0 port. Since I don't have an optical drive, in order to get the motherboard's drivers I used the "Easy Driver Installer" option in the UEFI, described as:
"For users that don’t have an optical disk drive to install the drivers from our support CD, Easy Driver Installer is a handy tool in the UEFI that installs the LAN driver to your system via an USB storage device, then downloads and installs the other required drivers automatically through the internet. Completely no CD or optical disk drive required!"

This process was able to complete but in the end there was no "Finished" or "Completed" message and nothing to indicate that there was more left to do. After saving and exiting UEFI and starting Windows 7 however, I still do not have any LAN or USB drivers installed, meaning I can neither download the drivers nor even put them on a USB drive since Windows will not recognize my storage device no matter which (2.0 or 3.0) port I plug it into.

Note however that my USB mouse and keyboard do work fine with Windows and the UEFI.

Does anyone have advice for how I might get drivers up and running on my system?

Thanks

If anyone else had this problem, I found a solution from here: http://www.tomshardware.com/answers/id-3063775/install-mobo-drivers-dvd-internet-usb-isnt-picking.html

From siatus:
So what I did was:
1.- Load my wireless card driver to my pen drive that has the bootable windows
2.- Restart my laptop in order to boot from windows 7 installation.
3.- Instead of selecting start setup, I went to repair options
4.- Once in repair options select CMD
5.- In CMD identify the current letters of your drives in order to proceed
(this by following commands)
diskpart (enter)
list volumes (enter)
(information is displayed)
exit (enter in order to leave diskpart)
6.- once physical units are identified. just use CMD to perform the copy of the folders you want
xcopy "D:\source_drives" C:\destination_drives /s/c/y
7.- exit windows installation, turn off computer and remove pen drive
8.- Once you start windows 7 again, files must be on your local drive; just install them from there.

In my case I selected the wireless card since with internet connection everything is easier, but you can put any driver you want and copy that to your local drive.

I hope this helps, and please give a thumbs up or a congrats since i spend an entire day trying to solve this

Best regards!"


Basically, you have to put the driver files on the USB used to install Windows and then from the Windows repair option open the CMD and copy the files from the USB to your main drive.
