Say Intel new motherboard can not install Win7? No, there is a trick

[PConline Tutorial] Since the listing of the 100 series motherboards, there have been a lot of voices saying that the new motherboard no longer supports the installation of the Win7 system. (The Win7 system's default USB EHCI driver does not support the USB host of the Intel 100 series motherboard, and therefore Win7 Installation is already a door 槛). To the 200 series, Microsoft and Intel directly announced the death penalty of Win7 - Wintel officially announced that it no longer supports the 200 series motherboard & Win7 combination. It is recommended that everyone use the more beautiful and more humane Win10 system directly - but many motherboard manufacturers are deeply satisfied User demand is the right way, so there are still many manufacturers to bypass the Wintel Alliance restrictions, continue to make their new motherboard compatible Win7 system!

Even last week, Microsoft officially announced that Win7 will only be updated and maintained until 2020, and will only push security fixes and will not update new features. The targeted optimization of Intel 7th generation Core and AMD's seventh-generation Bristol Ridge APU is only available to Win10 systems, which is what you are currently using as Win7 and what it will look like by 2020.

Of course, our purpose today is not to say how good Win7 is, how kind the Wintel Alliance is, but for those who want to continue to use the most comfortable Windows 7 operating system on a new generation of platforms to explore whether it can be installed, how to install Method only. Let's have a look

Test Hardware & System Description:

MSI Z270 XPOWER GAMING TITANIUM Reference Price: Loading... Image Reviews Quote Parameter Overview

The purpose of this study is to find out whether the 200-series motherboard + 7-generation Core CPU can continue to install Win7 and use it normally. Therefore, the motherboard and CPU have selected the very representative MSI high-end motherboards Z270 XPOWER GAMING TITANIUM and i7-7700K. Other hardware is the same. All of these brands are new products that have only been released in recent months. Including SSD, GALAXY GTX1060 GAMER, etc.

Key Note: Since Microsoft's official Win7 installation package does not come with the USB driver of the 200 series motherboard, the selected motherboard must have a PS/2 interface to use the PS/2 keyboard. Otherwise, it will not be possible to install the CD-ROM driver. Continue with the installation. (Of course, you can use Win7 USB driver pre-made Win7 mirror, but given the difficulty is not an ordinary low, it is not included in the discussion)

Because the installation process cannot use the screenshot function in most cases, it can only be displayed by way of photographing. If the picture quality is slightly poor, please also understand it and see the picture clearly.

The first is the platform construction -

High-end hardware list

DVD drive is also essential

Zhiqi TRIDENT Z series high frequency memory

Well, the platform is completed, the first is to insert a pre-prepared system disk (as for the system disk how to do not say, Baidu a search has no less than 10 detailed tutorial), boot.

● Win7 installation process:

Enter the BIOS

Almost all vendors' BIOSes now have this option. To use Win7, remember to check the XHCI Hand-off option, which is either "Allow" or "Enable". Then set the U disk as the first boot entry, enter the U disk installation.

start installation

The key to continuing this operation after this step is: PS/2 keyboard, because the Win7 system is a USB driver without an Intel 200 series motherboard. If you use a USB interface mouse, you cannot continue to operate here. Follow-up installation.

Then is the fool's next step, until -

Ask to add a driver

At this time, the DVD drive and the CD-ROM that came with the motherboard will work -

Insert the disc into the drive and read the disc

After plugging it in, the system will automatically identify and search for the required driver and install it automatically. (Note: The external optical drive of the USB interface cannot be used here because the USB interface driver is not yet installed.)

USB keyboard and mouse can be used normally here

Continue to install

Installation restarted successfully

Foolish operation

Successful entry into the system

Then install the required driver. If the driver of all the hardware can be installed and played normally, then this time, the 200-series motherboard will have Win7 installed.

Install all the drivers on the CD

Then install the NVIDIA driver -

All hardware drivers are installed

CPU, Main Board, Graphics Parameters & Chess Run Points

You can see the motherboard model is MSI Z270 XPOWER GAMING TITANIUM, the graphics card is GALAXY's GTX1060 GAMER, CPU is Intel i7-7700K.

The running score of chess is 16967 points, which is a normal performance of 7700K and dual channel DDR4 2400MHz memory.

Win7 4K resolution to see PConline web experience

Here it has been determined that the Intel 200 Series motherboard + 7-generation Core Duo is still able to run Win7 normally, friends who love Win7 can continue to use their most familiar operating system on the new platform.

●PConline evaluation room summary:

First of all, we still very much recommend that everyone use Win10 system, this article of Win7 installation is only for the enthusiast that still adheres to Win7 to try something to realize, the conclusion is certainly possible.

After all, Win7 has been working hard for years, and Win10 with more updates has been on the market for more than a year, and Microsoft has also made it clear that Win7 will no longer update any new features. Only security updates will be available, and Win7 will be updated. The lifespan will only be until 2020. In other words, if you do not get used to Win10 now, you still have to go through this process by 2020. More Win10 benefits will no longer be Amway, or you need to pay attention to the process of installing Win7 on the 200-series motherboard. Question.

The 1Ghost installation method is difficult to implement unless you inject the USB driver of Win7 system into Ghost in advance. Otherwise, you will get stuck in a process and cannot continue. Therefore, we also use the U disk method to install the Win7 official installation package.

2 Motherboards must have a PS/2 connector to connect to a keyboard (it is useless to use a USB-PS/2 connector), otherwise even if you have a USB driver, you cannot operate the computer to install it.

3 You must have Win7 system USB driver in your motherboard CD, because not all manufacturers still support Win7 on all motherboards, but some manufacturers crack Intel and Microsoft restrictions to allow the motherboard to continue to support Win7 and provide Win7 drivers.

The 47th generation Core Core has no Win7 driver, so if you are planning to use the 7th generation CPU core in the Win7 system, then give up. Intel is not directly driven by Win7 to help Microsoft push the Win10 system. But the 6-core Core Core and AMD, NVIDIA alone have Win7 drivers can be installed.
