    Cooler Master Elite 330 drivers?


    I'm a complete noob when it comes to computers. Background on my issue:
    I was running on Windows Vista (Home basic I think) when AVG detected a virus; I closed my other applications (as I was about to go out anyway) and ran a scan (full scan) with malwarebyte's anti-malware. I then went out and walked my dog. When I returned my computer had rebooted, I logged on and for some reason explorer did not load, I opened malwarebytes again via the task manager, whilst it was scanning I also decided to look for a process that may have previously caused the reboot. I noticed there were TWO coppies of crss.exe running, so chances are one was the virus. As processes run in RAM, and neither had any info, I decided I'd end the first one, if it wasn't that, I could restart and end the 2nd next time. I kill the process, get BSOD and then my computer rebooted, however wouldn't load. It loaded to an empty command line with no text. I waited a small while, nothing changed, I rebooted, again, nothing. I asked online and was told I needed to format and re-install OS. However I had lost the installation disc for vista (vista sucks anyway) so I got myself a copy of Windows 7 ultimate, (64-bit, I've got 3GB RAM).
    My problem: Upon loading the disc (booting from disc obviously as I could not boot from the HDD), I accept the terms blah blah blah, select "custom install (advanced)" (You coulda just put "fresh install" btw); and it takes me to a form where I have to select the driver... Except it's blank, and can't find anything. As I said, I'm a complete noob with technology, however I do believe drivers are the software required to run hardware? My computer model is the title thread; but I have no discs for that. I really don't know what I'm supposed to do, can someone please help me out? Thanks.

    Well I can't get on the computer exactly, as to my memory I had roughly 500GB HDD, and 3GB RAM, no graphics card. I was running on Vista Home Basic 32 bits. What more information do you need? And how do I find it out?

    Your saying you don't see a disk where the red box is in the image?

    If that's the case you need to open your case and find the Name and Model No of your Motherboard.

    Where did you get the PC from? Self built or from a shop? Does it tell you when its booting up?

    You nee to look for something like this (bold print or something that stands out from the rest of the print on the motherboard) in this case Gigabyte GA965GM -S2
