Windows 7 Install dickery

So, I just built my pc. I try to install win 7, I come up with the Missing usb 3 driver issue. 

Have any of you ever addressed this issue before? What is the best way to go about fixing it?

Still, don't put too much faith in my buying decisions. xD

I guess... install drivers should fix

But I cant install drivers on a non existant install. 

Im trying an intel Window 7 USB 3 fix USB creator, but it seems to stall at initializing dism.

is there a usb 2 port on the back of the computer?

There is, but I seem to get the same error when I use that as well.

 I've also tried the method where you switch the usb to a different port midway.

dickery is the appropriate term. If you go to the manufacturers site there should be some drivers you can put on disc to load at install

I've tried to, but theres also this crazy copy paste thing you must do with boot.wim and install.wim which I got stuck on.

You can inject USB 3.0 drivers into your Windows 7 installer, so that they load when you try to install Windows 7.

I tried ti, but the Cmd prompt part didn't work.

follow the guide in my signature.

Please spend as much time writing your question, as you want me to spend responding to it.  Take some time, and explain your issue, please!
