i will try it now

it work but stuck on windows 7 logo



Great find but I think Safedisk also had some old BIOS for Apex on LGA1200 but it was not a solid BIOS, just only made to run on Win7 it’s on HWbot forum. Might be a similar case. Edit - ASUS released a new BIOS for Z590 at hwbot which has Win7 and XP support, they won’t A5 BSOD I guess However if those are correct and accurate that means there’s a CSM option even on Z690 however not sure how Windows 7 can handle these small cores. Raptor Lake is even going to add more E cores to the mix. Win10 also has issues if we see Anandtech on ADL handling at the moment as per their take.




i could not find where is the new Asus Bios for z590 that support Windows 7 thow…

@Saud : Why did you buy a brandnew mainboard with an Intel Z590 chipset, when you want to run an outdated OS like Win7?

This BSOD indicates, that the mainboard BIOS doesn’t deliver the ACPI settings, which are required to get Win7 installed.

Enable CSM



I hope @canonkong can help you with Windows 7 x64 ACPI problem

msi 보드로 windows7가 설치가능합니다. asus는 설치중 부팅 멈춤현상 일어납니다

Hmm, I have ACPI A5 blue screen Or stuck on Windows 7 logo on Gigabyte Z590 vision C and 11900k, can someone take a look in it? How to get trough to this Win7, I need it to finalize migrating to new PC.

Try change BIOS settings.
Secure Boot [Disabled]?
CSM Support = [Enabled]?
Legacy USB Support [Enabled]?
Fast Boot [Disabled]?
Windows 10 Features [Disabled]?
LAN PXE Boot Option ROM [Enabled]?
Storage Boot Option Control [Legacy]?
XHCI Hand-off [Disabled]?
Use Rufus for create boot flash, with settings: Partition scheme = MBR, Target System = BIOS (or UEFI-CSM).

Thank You did not notice this reply earlier, will try it, for now had many problems with windows gen 10 and solving those. Gigabyte is still messing around BIOS modifications.

The latency on whatever I do in desktop or browser or any applications is so laggy on these systems.
Sound, mouse clicks, internet connection refreshing tabs… all you can imagine. This new HARDWARE IS PERFORMING WORSE THAN S97 WITH I7 5790K… it is not funny.
