Today I have built a new computer, motherboard is Asus and its running Windows 10. The only issue is that the Ethernet port is orange and a darker orange and won't connect to the Internet 😞 Unfortunately I have gone for a built with out driver bays.
So my question is how do I get this working ? I'm assuming usually you'd install drivers and your away but it's all on a cd and not on a usb.
Thanks in advance Sam

Is it showing a network device within network and sharing centre. ?
If no go to device manager, find the Ethernet adapter, properties, device id, search that on another computer, download driver to usb (from reputable site e.g. manufacturer), install from usb

Don't blame you for not having cd bays, can't remember the last time I used mine.
As mentioned, pop the disk in another machine and copy the contents

As bart says, find a PC that does have a CDROM and copy the contents to USB or find the driver online using your tablet or whatever and put it on USB, or if you have android phone you could download it to your phone, plug it into your computer by USB and copy it across?
