Drivers can be integrated into installation media after integration of KB2864202 and KB4474419 above.

Hi!
I was able to transfer my old Win7 installation to new Gigabyte A520 Aorus Elite mobo with Ryzen 7 5700X. All seems working, BUT: in DevMgr I have NO entry for Processor!! It should be 16x Ryzen 7 5700X, but even processor category is missing… Is it possible to install it with some driver? Thanks for help.
well done! much faster than xhci driver from 2018.
I ran across this information on another forum:
“Starting from AMD’s 500 and Intel 600 series, due to the adjustment of BIOS structure, the hardware loading of the CPU no longer uses the traditional method, and instead adopts ACPI0007, a solution that only supports Win8 and above systems. This solution causes the hardware manager to not load the CPU on Win7”
So it appears that unless someone modifies the bios for your board, or designs a “shim” (if possible) to translate the new bios format to the older version and pass it to Windows during boot, the processor information will no longer appear in Device Manager.
By the way I’m in the same boat as you are since the CPU info is no longer in Device Manager on the X670E Tomahawk either.

A620 not supporting?
Same thing on MSI X670E Gaming Plus WiFi (MS-7E16).
I think all of the X670E boards are probably that way, since the board manufacturer just modifies the AMD AGESA code for their particular needs, although when I was still using my MPG X570 Gaming Plus, it had all of the CPU’s listed in Device Manager despite other posters saying that their X570 boards didn’t.
So far with the exception of certain bench marking software, all of my day to day programs have worked well on my 9950X, even though no CPU information is listed in Device Manager.

win 7/8.1 working with x870e/b850? or only x570/x670e/b650/b650e ?

@canonkong - if I understood correctly what you wrote earlier - you have access to people at MSI who can update the motherboard bios.
If this is current, I would ask you to whisper the word to this person for an update for the MSI x670e GODLIKE.
New features request:
-
Adding an optional option to disable M.2 (NVMe) and SATA ports in UEFI.
-
Add a feature that allows enabling an optional user prompt for the UEFI password.
Unfortunately… Polish support wrote me back that they are not adding it… because they don’t.
What about native UEFI on Win7 like in this Post?
Does Win7 works with 2x24GB Ram Sticks?
Someone can share their experience?
It should work.
Are there any Windows 7 users who have tested the OS with x870 and wrx90 chipsets?

I would think so,if only I could afford wrx90. Someone need to test Epyc on 7 or 2008r2 as well ,

7 works with 2x24 sticks. 7 works with up to 192 ram officially. 2008r2 goes up to 2tb

What is the practical use of Epyc? I thought it is not better than Threadripper
funny thing, it is 2025 and we still have the latest cpus in Win7
If one wants more then 96 core epyc is the way to go , or more than 2tb ram.
so this win7 driver is sort of a backport of win10 driver.
when will microsoft and amd get their shit together and fix these drivers to acceptable level? (device manager say driver provider microsoft)
i have hw here that requires fw load (it’s drivers are questionable too) and this hw starts faster on my 16y old laptop than on a pre-ryzen system
win7 (2018. amd chipset driver) - 25 seconds
win7 (driver downloaded from here) - 12 seconds
win10 (ms driver) - 12 seconds
rs780 laptop (win7/win10) - 8 seconds
application used is doing register polling on hw and if set 10ms polling rate the app becomes slugish, need to use at least 100ms or even more so it has enough resource to do basic work normally which is bullshit
Does it include the Samsung 9100 PRO PCIe 5.0 NVMe M.2 driver? I plan to use this drive on a MSI PRO X670-P WIFI.
@o2cy
Welcome to the Win-Raid Forum!
This is a thread about USB drivers. PCIe or M.2 connected SSDs are not supported at all by them.
I thought this included Intel/Samsung NVME drivers.
win7 MS NVME driver can work for 5.0 nvme and its speed higher than win10/11.
