    Ok installed windows now of course i need to install all the drivers form the asus driver disk. Well i tried it once and it screwed up and i coulndt turn off my comptuer dont know what went wrong there. So im reformating and reinstalling windows and gonna try it again. Could the problem have been that i was not restarting after each driver install. I was installing them all then restarting. Also is there any drivers on that disk that i should avoid installing?

    Yes, it is generally a good idea to restart after installing every driver. Also try to install the chipset drivers then followed by the processor in an order so as to make sure there wont be any driver conflict. I would install the BT driver last.

    Read the driver Mannul and install in the exact order. Make sure you start from page 1. YOu don't have to restart after every single one of them but do it after every 5 drivers installed is a good idea incase the window crash.

    If you pop in the driver disc into the drive, it should auto load, just follow the instructions and install from top to bottom, it'll tell you if it needs to restart or not.
