Network drivers for Ethernet devices
Hello! Your system upgrade is exciting. The new motherboard (Z690) uses Realtek Lan Driver, while your current one (Z370) uses Killer Lan Driver. When you restart your PC, it will likely switch drivers automatically—so you should have internet access without needing to change anything manually. Just make sure the drivers are compatible with your new hardware.
You should likely be able to use standard drivers without issues, which will help you reach a reliable download source. It might be wise to remove unnecessary drivers before the transition.
Usually Windows relies on an integrated driver and can update it itself. It's smart to save the drivers for the board before changing them, ensuring you have them ready for installation. This helps verify you're using the newest version and avoids issues with automatic network drivers.
