Can't install Windows 11 because Asus LAN driver not recognised by Windows setup

I have just built my new pc using the Asus Prime Z790-A WIFI motherboard.  I am in the process of installing Windows 11 Pro however i am stuck on the step "lets connect you to a network".   I downloaded the LAN driver folder and Wi-fi driver folder from the Asus site to my external drive and then plugged it into my new pc but windows setup can't find the drivers.  When i click on the folders the setup shows empty folders with no drivers.  I also can't bypass this step because i can't use my keyboard either for some reason.

I have accidentally solved this issue myself.  I put the LAN driver folder onto my usb that has the windows media creation tool for installing windows.  When i get to the step to connect to a network and i click on the install driver button, this time rather than double clicking on the LAN driver folder to open it, i instead just click on it once and then there is a select folder button to click on.  when i click on this then it works and connects to the internet.
