    Welcome to the forum,

    That's a Realtek driver you're looking for which should be on your motherboard website.

    You only list MSI so I can't pin it down any further without the full model number.

    You can also try the Realtek site, the 8168 is covered in this download,

    Realtek

    Thank you for the reply. I remembered I had the box that the motherboard came in and luckily the disk was still inside so I was able to get the drivers right there . The rest of my install went really well 195 updates later.
