• 🖱️ After detection or serial number entry, select your operating system (e.g., Windows 11) and version.
• ⬇️ Browse through the available drivers, such as network drivers for Wi-Fi, and download the necessary ones.
• 🚀 Follow the on-screen prompts for installation, which typically involves clicking Next and Finish.
