thats what drivers are made for ;)

 

most motherboards come with an installation disc

insert your driver disc or download the drivers for your motherboard and GPU from the manufacturers website <placebrandhere>.com

What you will need to do is install drivers for your GTX 660 ti and then install network drivers which you can find on your motherboard maker's website.  (can you find ethernet drivers on the disks?)

For the Best builds and Price lists here is a world where many points of the price have been predefined already for your convenience!

The Xeon E3 1231 V3 IS BETTER Than the Core i5 4690K and a Significantly better value for the non-overclockers or value shoppers.

The OS is like a kind food, Try it before saying if you like it or don't.

yeah, the mobo driver discs include most of this like network, usb, chipset etc

sometimes the manufacturer gives you some bonus software too, i had cpu z and some other tools on that disc too with a manufacturer skin

Windows has the generic PnP monitor driver. You won't even need the graphics driver to start installing stuff. 

 

My favorite thing to do is just put all the essential drivers on a USB stick with the Windows installer. Assuming you've patched for Z170 installs it should show up on first boot to the desktop. 

 

But to answer OP's question, check your motherboard's manufacturer website and download the network driver.

If you have the motherboard disc, insert it and install the network drivers. If not, use another computer to find the motherboards website and download the drivers from there. Then just transfer the driver via thumb drive and install them.
