Recently decided to do a fresh installation of Windows 10 since i just did the free upgrade from Windows 7. After going through all my drivers CD's i ended up popping in my MSI Motherboard drivers and it will not launch the CD. It tells me "Failed to Load hardware monitor driver. This program must be ran as an administrator. Which i did try with no results. I believe it is because the Cd was intened for windows 7 and not 10 but when i go to the website to download the drivers they dont appear on my computer after extracting them. Any help would be greatly appreciate it.
 
Solution
How is that possible? Explain, how you're doing it then.

And please list your hardware specs.


Intel 3570k @ 4.2
MSI Z77A-GD65 Gaming
Gskill Ripjaws 8gb
Gigabyte Windforce 1060 6GB

The Cd i tried using on windows 10 was the one that came with my motherboard. It wont load and when i open the files it wont install them saying it isnt compatible with my windows. So i went to the MSI website and downloaded them but when i extract them and save them to my C drive nothing happens. Im assuming i need to install them but i dont know how to install specific files
 


I completely missed the Setup file that i extracted and now everything will install , im sorry for not being specific enough but i have figured out my own dumb problem.
