I recently assembled my pc but I'm having trouble with the wifi. The motherboard, Msi B550M PRO-VDH Wifi has built in wifi, and I have plugged in the antennas. The internet will just not work. I have download every possible driver and still nothing. When I go into device manager, the wifi doesn't show up under network adapters. It also doesn't show up when I go into control panel and check network connections. It only shows ethernet, which I don't have. I am wondering if there is anything I can do without having to buy a wifi adaptor for a board that already has wifi in it.

Check the most recent system information via the Device Manager or HardwareInfo64.

You initially configured the BIOS before connecting any hard drives. This method works well for me, but I don’t have MSI motherboards.
