Exclamation mark next to Network Adapter in BIOS

[Jesse22]

Hey guys, serious problem here and it’s wearing me out for days now. I’ve been having issues with my network adapter since i switched hard drives and installed new win10 from a usb drive. I’ve tried reinstalling the drivers and even bought an external usb wifi adapter and it still didn’t work. 

I think the major problem is the bios as there’s a “!” next to the next work adapter in BIOS settings. Please help me, very urgent 😭😭
