Hello there, lately i have been trying to install windows 7 on my new pc that came with windows 10 prebuilt
Windows 7 install page works fine but i cannot move the mouse or use keyboard. I also dont have a PS/2 mouse or keyboard that i can use.
Tried adding USB 3 drivers, It works but it stops working after it reboots and gets to the complete part of installation where it asks for a name to use on the pc
Drivers and programs i used:
NTlite
ASMedia 3.0 USB Drivers
Here are the pc specs:
CPU: I5-9400F @ 2.90GHz
RAM: 16GB DDR4 2400MHz
DISK: Samsung SSD 970 EVO Plus 250GB
GPU: NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1660 6GB
MOTHERBOARD: Gigabyte Z390 UD

They don't have a driver disk I just plug them and they work but this is not the case for windows 7
The amiko one says it supports win 7 also ethernet drivers are missing

Look up the models and see if you can find Windows 7 drivers for any one.
