So I recently had the brainstorm of upgrading my motherboard, cpu and memory but I didn't want to re-install Windows 7. So I went with the Z68 Extreme4, i7 2600k cpu and 8GB of G.Skill Sniper ram. I used my old hard drive that is installed with Windows 7 x64 that was in my AMD system before swapping the board out.
The system boots up fine but there are a couple issues I can't seem to fix.
1) DVD drive won't read discs. The drive shows up in device manager and shows no errors but any disc in it can't be read. When I try to open the disc it comes up a pop-up window that says "Insert Disc" and it automatically ejects the disk. This drive worked fine before the MB swap.
2) USB ports aren't working. The usb keyboard and mouse don't work once windows boots up althought hey work fine in the bootloader. I believe this is related to drivers not being installed, in device manager the usb controller has errors that drivers aren't installed.
3) Internet doesn't work. No drivers for ethernet controller.
I think most issues are related to not being able to install drivers from the CD drive, not sure how to get this working. Any help would be appreciated.
