Computer: Motherboard: Asus Prime B250 Plus
CPU: Intel i3 7100
I formatted a hard disk and am trying to install Windows 7 64 bit into the first partition.
When I try to install it freezes where it says: "loading windows"
From my research I think it is a problem with usb3 drivers. When I plug the mouse into the ps/2 I can get the mouse to work. The problem is I can't get the keyboard to work as well.
I have contacte Asus. They gave me an information page to link for preloading USB 3.0 drivers and installing Windows ® 7.
Here are the instructions: Link Removed
I tried Method 1: Using SATA ODD & USB devices
When I selected the USB it just passed it and didn't load anything.
I tried Method 2: Using ASUS EZ Installer
I tried booting from the Asus support DVD and got Freedos, C: prompt. I don't no what to do with this.
Asus also gave me a link to download Rufus. Will this create a bootable USB with the usb3 drivers?
I already have an operating system installed and want to add Windows 7. Will Rufus allow me to use my partitioning table?
I think I partitioned with MBR will I need to repartition with UEFI?
I don't know anything about UEFI as this is new to me, and am not sure how to set the Asus bios to intall this.
Thanks for help
