They should not install. Why?

Because installing that may require us to install the chipset driver first.

Frankly, a clean install of Windows (any version to date) is too rough on folk. Why not run the Windows the h405 came with?

Use the restore media.

If you forgot to make them, order them.

Remember you left out details such as which OS (I can guess windows but no more) and then some versions won't have drivers.

BEYOND DRIVERS there are apps we must install to turn on devices, control WiFi, sound and more. Installing Windows is not trivial. Only the maker will have the exact steps. I can only guide or provide the usual routine.

Restore media is best. Or if you can, just use a Linux.

Get that from Logitech. It's not a stock item.
