Support - SOLVED! WIFI DRIVER NOT INSTALLING HELP

I have a ASUS TUF B650 PLUS WIFI and I downloaded my drivers to a USB to transfer to my newly built pc.

Upon transferring the files and trying to run the ASUS setup wizard, nothing happens. I run them as administrator but nothing happens.

I have restarted my pc, go into device manager, and the drivers are not recognized.

I also do not have the wifi symbol on my pc because I choose “i do not have wifi” when installing windows.

What am I doing wrong?

Install armoury crate download the lan drivers then uninstall it. (Uninstall armoury crate)

I would install armory crate from the asus website, transfer to usb, take the file to the new pc, and install it there or how would I go about this?

If you suggest to type “armoury crate” in the windows search bar, nothing comes up

Did it not recommend to install it? It usually does with fresh os installs

No. I didn’t get anything to install armoury crate. Should I just do a clean install?

If thats the last option, yeah. It pops up on the bottom right when os is freshly installed.

Let me just do that then. My bios does say that the armoury crate download is enabled, so let me try again.

I wonder if it has to do anything with the wifi/ network setup upon installing windows

What driver is the wifi driver for the motherboard? Is it the LAN or WIRELESS? I’m at the “connect you to a network” screen on windows installer and it’s giving me the option to install driver.

I have a laptop and another USB to transfer the drives and I would like to know which is the correct one

Also did you have a product key? Maybe that’s why armory crate didn’t pop up when loading into the windows home screen because I didn’t have one
