How do I use Macrium Reflect to install the USB3.0 drivers on an existing Windows 7
@Softtydragon You can install those drivers like every other, with an installation setup or via device manager, if you donāt want to do a reinstallation. Or you can use windows remote desktop and do it this way with your local network.
You annoy me if you donāt start using points, commas and question marks.
How did you even install Windows 7 on your Z390 board if you donāt have a PS/2-port ? Did you just swap your drive ?
thanks PatrickK thanks for your works and the ftp sharing , there is only 1 english version you make . but thatās good enough 
!
@darkneill Thank you for your compliment, you are welcome. Yes, my native tongue is german, thatās why. I work on a version able to provide more that one language right from the beginning of an installation, you are not the first one mentioning, and there are people, here in the forum, using Windows 7 in italian and french, afaik.
Update:
Yesterday, I tried to install W7 on my new Z390 board (ASUS Maximus XI Hero) with my customized W7-DVD (MS NVMe-Hotfixes, Z390 USB 3.1 Drivers and some essential windows updates integrated; drivers are integrated in both install.wim and boot.wim) and after clicking āInstall nowā, I get the following error message:
"A required CD/DVD driver device driver is missing. If you have a driver floppy disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive, please insert it now."
Important Note: Iām running the W7-DVD with the UefiSeven bootloader in order to achieve a pure UEFI install - the bootloader itself gets successfully loaded (I can enter Windows Setup welcome screen).
So what does that mean now? Are the Z390 drivers not correctly installed, or are the MS NVMe-Hotfixes not sufficient for my Samsung SSD 970 Evo Plus drive or is UefiSeven the source of the problem?
AZ
@AbsoluteZero You need to inetgrate the two MS NVMe hotfixes the right way, otherwise there will be an error with a āmissingā driver. Or you donāt use them and load the needed driver from a secon USB drive with the drivers on it.
Why do you want to have a UEFI installation ?
im trying your mobile slipstreaming :D.
Can you define that a little bit more detailed? Then I know, what I have to doā¦
And by the way, it wasnāt two but three NVMe hotfixes from MS, that I have integrated into "install.wim" and "boot.wim".
When doing an UEFI installation, then do it the right way (without CSM) - that wasnāt possible for W7ā¦ until recently, with the emerge of solutions like UefiSeven or FlashBoot or guides from users like bloodhand, now it is possible - so I want to use it
AZ
@AbsoluteZero What I mean is that, if you do it with a batch file, there needs to be a copy command on one line, only one, not more, took me about a week and some nerves to get to know this, had the āmissing driverā error, like you.
What three? Would be new to me, afaik there are only two, never heard from a third one.
PatrickK thanks again , i have try your mobile slipstreaming x64 v1.1 and now i have a en win7 64 aio with home basic home premium pro and ultimate iso in one pack thanks !!
Well, I didnāt do it via script; I manually integrated the NVMe hotfixes one by one via DISM /add-driver (or /add-package) from command line (with elevated administrator rights, of course). For the Z390 drivers, I also used the /forceunsigned parameter.
I recall, it was three - another one besides KB2990941 and KB3087873. But maybe I recall it wrong and there are indeed only 2 NVMe hotfixes - Iāll check it out againā¦

@AbsoluteZero
Have to do a clean reinstall of W7.
I can see that a System Reserved partition was created when I did my first install.
Hoping youāll still be able to guide me through
the process of clean partitioning/conversion so
itās a completely clean reinstall.
Hey pvmt7,
Sorry for my delayed response - I was busy the last days and I had to prepare myself for my response, so I can adequately help you
The steps described below are NOT explained in detail - Iāll do that in the next couple of hours or till tomorrow, so you know how to perform these steps
If you want to do a clean reinstall of Windows (be it 7, 8 or 10 - doesnāt matter), you should do these initial steps:
1.) Wipe all your drives clean by using diskpart in command prompt from Windows Setup media (DVD, USB boot stick) with the command "clean" (without the quote symbols). However, this is only "basic cleaning" (to delete existing partitions); the actual wipe/erase operation is step 2.)
[Important: DONāT DO THIS on your secondary/other drives, if they are data drives or contain other operating systems (Linux, OSX, etc.) or other Windows versions -> either wipe only the primary drive (where you want to install Win7) or make a backup of your other drives before performing this step! This also applies for step 2 and step 3 !]
2.)
for SSDs: Do a Secure Erase either by:
- using tools provided by your SSD manufacturer (e.g. Samsung Magician)
- or issuing ATA Security Erase (SE)/Enhanced Security Erase (ESE) command (or better: ATA Sanitize "Block Erase" -> use this instead, if your drive supports it!)
- and/or PSID Revert (if your SSD offers this function)
in order to completely reset all SSD cells and wipe it clean of data. This will also restore original SSD performance to factory zero. For NVMe-SSDs, you might need to run nvme-cli from a linux session (e.g. Linux Live-CD) or you can use PartedMagic to perform this step or you can do a PSID Revert, if your NVMe-SSD supports it.
for HDDs:
- use ATA Enhanced Security Erase (if available) or ATA Security Erase - these functions are old and deprecated andā¦
- ā¦ATA Sanitize is their successor; for HDDs it only supports the method "Overwrite" (SANITIZE OVERWRITE EXT command) - however, this command is dangerous and it could brick your HDD!!! So better useā¦
- ā¦badblocks instead! (from a Linux session)
Once completed, the HDD will also be completely erased and zeroed.
3.) convert all your drives to GPT format by starting up diskpart again (from a Windows Setup media command prompt) and entering the command "convert gpt" (again, without quote symbols) for each drive after selecting the corresponding drive.
4.) create partitions according to recommended Microsoft partition scheme for UEFI/GPT-based drives.
Cluster Size/Allocation Unit Size: (when creating a partition with diskpart)
For SSDs: either use 4KB (which is industry standard nowadays) or you can use higher sizes of 8KB or 16KB, which might enhance SSD performance. (it could also worsen performance - so use at your own risk!)
For HDDs: if you have games and/or a lot of large files on your HDD, then use 64KB - or you can leave it at itās standard/default value (4KB), if you want to.
5.) Install Windows.
So far for nowā¦

Hi canonkong . A lot of thanks for such titanic efforts with win7 drivers. Iāve installed your SHA256 USB3.1 drivers on my Z390D mainboard with win7x64 and yes, itās OK. But youāve mentioned that you have the Nvidia GTX16XX RTX20XX USB-C drivers for win7. Where can i download them? Again, thanx a lot!
Hi everyone
I have PC with Win7 32 bit running on Intel b365.
I can fully operate it via Remote Desktop but I cannot install drivers for 3 devices
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_A36D&SUBSYS_843C103C&REV_10 USB Controller
ACPI\ACPI000E
ACPI\HPIC0003
Is very any way to instal USB to use local HID devices ? Thx
https://ibb.co/92P5b1v
Yes I did, I ve tried to install every driver from this tread using dpinst32.exe. Maybe i didnt find the right file ?
Also i did manual install - edited inf file
[Intel]
[Intel.NTx86.6.1]
%IUsb3XhcDeviceDesc02% = IUsb3XhcModel, PCI\VEN_8086&CC_0C0330
[IUsb3XhcModel]
but "Device cannot start" code 10

Thanks AbsoluteZero.
My turn to apologize for late response.
Did a clean re install all working fineā¦ except,ā¦
There are a few audio plug ins whose GUIās are blank or the area
that is misisng is filled in by the background of the program Iām opening them in.
Iāve tracked down info and itās connected to the graphics,specifically that
in device manager/display adapters
Standard VGA Graphics Adapter is al that is listed.
So the intel graphics driver needs to be installed.
Downloaded the intel (R) HD 630 graphics drivers, which are supposed to be compatible
with the Z390A and the intel i9 9900k cpu .
But when I go to install the drivers I get this error message;
The driver selected for this device does not support this version of Windows.
Not sure what the issue may be.
Hi guys maybe you can help. Managed to install WIN 7 (ROG STRIX Z390-H GAMING) but I canāt find drivers for Network Controller ,PCI Device and Universal Serial Bus (USB) Controller. Any help will be greatly appreciated
What do you mean by this all the time? Is there a Trojan Backdoor included or why should it not be used in a Business Environment?
Or, what is the legal background for this phrase?
