[SOLVED] Parts Put Together, Now What?

[versionmanager]

Now that I am about to finish the construction of my Gaming PC, now what? I have a new copy of Windows 64 Home on a CD. Will the drivers already populate the System automatically when I load Windows 64 Home?

I have a 2 TB portable SSD. Can I populate the SSD with any files that need to be loaded instead of using a Thumb or CD Drive? Note I do have an external CD Drive as well to load Windows but I prefer to copy the Windows CD contents to the SSD.

Do I need to initially to go to each Manufacturers' sites to get the right Bios, Firmware, Drivers, etc? Is this task done after the load?

Need guidance on this please. Thanks in advance.

I always run prime95 and memtest86 with a new build just for peace of mind that the hardware is working correctly
