After having to RMA the motherboard, I'm having a second attempt at a new build tonight and hopefully will get as far as installing operating system, drivers etc.

However, is there any particular order that stuff needs to be done with Windows 7. Obviously everyone says stay away from bundled drivers, but I'm using an SSD as boot drive - do I need to worry out anything, or will it just 'work'

It's a Gigabyte Z77-D3H motherboard if that's relevant...
 
Hmmm BIOS update straight away - a bit scary!

I'm assuming the unplugged SATA is to avoid it attempting to install there?
 
Cool - last time I did a BIOS update was 10 years ago - was a bit more fraught then ;)
