Ummm not sure where to post this so I guess I will just ask here .... I picked up the asus VIII hero board a few days ago .... put the new system together and when I tired to load up the drivers from the cd , it wont read it. I tried a different cd and it works just fine ..... I cant use my thumb drive because I need the updated drivers for it to work properly . Any thing else I can do to get the drivers?

yes from the motherboard support site here at https://www.asus.com/Motherboards/MAXIMUS-VIII-HERO/HelpDesk_Download/ select your OS from the drop down menu and from there itll have all the drivers for the motherboard theyll be separated into their relevant categories and there will be multiple versions from newest to oldest

Do you have access to another Pc? I'm assuming you do not have an internet connection as well on the new setup, due to no installed Lan drivers.

Is the Disk scratched or marked up in any way? Have you tried wiping it off to see if it will help. Try calling Asus maybe they'll send you a new disk.

The disk looks good no scratches or anything on it. I did call asus tech support and they told me to either go to a library and use there computer to log into asus site and get the drivers and burn a cd . They wont send me another copy of the utility disk.

Well going to the library will work only if the Pc has a CD burner.

Oddly enough, I had basic internet drivers included with my Asrock board. Not sure if that's supposed to be a thing, but I'm not complaining.
Worst case, a 16 gig USB 2.0 flash drive is super cheap these days, so you can go buy one if you don't have one laying around.
Do you need 16? Not really. But when the difference between a 1 gig and a 16 gig is only $5, I don't see an issue. Its super handy to have around. You'll get your money's worth.
