Hardware change equals new drivers?

I upgraded from a 6100 to a i5 7500. I fired it up and it booted from the wrong drive no big deal i go into the bios and my boot drive isnt there. I swap sata ports and it boots to my normal drive but when i get into windows my drivers are gone everything else is fine just my drivers are gone . Does anybody have any ideas on why this happened?

What is the model of your motherboard? Did you change that too when you upgraded CPUs and does it have the latest bios revision?

 

Meh some build specs...

Meh some inspirational quote meh...

Upgrading the CPU doesn't require any new drivers. And I don't understand how the drivers are gone, because if they're gone, nothing would work.

Gpu drivers im sorry

The bios is probably part of the problem then as the 1xx motherboards usually aren't meant to be used with the 7-series processors without a BIOS update. Did you follow the procedure in this video from MSI on flashing the newest bios?
