Ok, you shouldn't need any drivers for that the drive will be automatically detected by the bios. So as long as you're able to get to the bios you should have no problem.

Hi, is the system able to boot up at all, if so does it freeze while tying to load windows or sometime between post anf windows loading.

You'll need to get a usb 3.0 adapter as the bus on a usb 2.0 will also cause you problems with connecting the the 5ghz band.

The AR956x can not work in the 5.0ghz range, as it's only a single band wireless adapter only capable of working in the 2.4ghz band. No modifications to the router will allow it to connect to the 5.0ghz band. Which I believe is why he's asking if an upgrade is available.
