Three points:
- For all of its (many) faults, Windows has a few good features. One of them being its ability to download and install just about all the drivers it needs. If you set BIOS -> Windows 8/10 Features to Windows 8/10 or Windows 8/10 WHQL before installing, it might be able to do a better job of configuring itself on your system. I did not need to download anything from the Gigabyte website. But if something (such as Thunderbolt) does not seem to be setup properly, then download and install the appropriate driver yourself. But give Windows a chance do it automatically. When Windows installation is done, change that BIOS parameter back to Other OS.
Do you have the most up to date drivers? Or are the ones on Gigabytes site newer? Just curious, because on my Windows machine, I recently changed it over from Windows 7 to Windows 10 clean install. Some of the stuff was there, but some of the stuff still needed to be installed. I think related to USB, it also did not install my Thunderbolt 3 card but that is an add-in.
