Trying to install Win7, it asks for cd driver?

Hello, I have just bought a T3620, replaced the win10 hard drive, with new hard drive for win7 install.

I have a Dell win7 pro cd (P/N DOV2K), in win set up it says It needs a driver on, cd, floppy, or usb stck. Is this driver on a newer disc? Please point me to where I may get the driver.

 

In Bios set up: /boot sequence: UEFI box checked. Boot list option UEFI radio button on. Advanced boot options: Enable Legacy option rom's box checked. Secure Boot Enable: Radio button to Disabled. 

Thank you for any help you can give.

    I have now got past the problem. In the bios the hard drive was in raid, now set to normal, the problem went away.

    After seeing various Youtube videos telling us to download loads of different drivers, they all went on a usb stick that was in the back of the pc. Maybe it read from there on this install attempt, but I doubt it.

    Hay ho' I hope this helps someone else

    They probably referred to driver pack.  Here is a Windows 7 driver pack for your T3620.  After download the .cab (cabinet) file to your computer, you can extract it using WinZip or WinRAR.  To install and update driver, open Device Manager, select any unknown device that need driver, select update driver and pointing (browse) to the extracted folder, it should find and install the appropriate driver for your device.  The driver pack can be delete or remove from your machine when done.
