[SOLVED] Windows 7 setup error "Missing CD/DVD driver"

[spaceflight_enthusiast]

I am attempting to install Windows 7 from a USB Drive, and it successfully boots to the windows 7 setup. But, once I select "Install now", it arrives at the "A required CD/DVD driver is missing" error. I have spent a few days trying to solve the problem, but nothing works. I have tried putting it in a USB 2.0 port, changing ports, and have tried loading the drivers from a separate USB drive, but so far nothing has worked. I am trying to install it on a Western Digital solid state drive on an MSi X470 AM4 gaming plus motherboard and a Ryzen 7 2700.

They didn't supply the win7 pre-installation drivers?
Get them from Gigabyte[/url. You will need either the Sata or the AHCI depending on which mode you have your motherboard sata ports in. AHCi is faster then Sata and is probably the default mode.
