    Can you still use Windows 7 on a modern PC in 2023? Today in this video I’ll try to find out is it worth to use Windows 7 in 2023 on a modern hardware. Windows 7 extended support ended on January 14, 2020, but there is a way to update Windows 7 until 2024. It means we can use it today. Will modern games run properly on it? Let’s find out.

    1. The reason you got the “missing media driver” message was not because it couldn’t recognize the drives, but it was rather because it could not read off the USB after booting off of it. The system can boot off the USB, but after that, it needs to read it in order to deploy the OS, but it can’t, because it doesn’t have the necessary drivers to read off of it. If you installed it using a cd/dvd or installing it onto the correct drive by plugging the drive into a compatible PC and doing it that way and then plugging the drive into yours, then you probably wouldn’t get that error message.
    It’s not because you’re lacking Intel RST drivers or NVMe, unless you’re using RST which is very unlikely or if you have ONLY am NVMe.
    I’m not sure why it worked once you integrated them, but once I integrated unnecessary drivers for already supported devices while installing 8.1, and it somehow worked.
    2. The reason the nVidia drivers couldn’t install properly is because the Win7 wHQL servers are down since January, so it can’t connect to them to determine whether or not drivers are valid and authentic, so no driver signatures will work and they will be detected as illegitimate. To solve this issue, you have to use DDU(Display Driver Uninstaller) to completely uninstall the current display drivers and then disable Driver Signing and disable integrity checks via CMD while restarting and then get the official SHA-2 hotfixes from Microsoft and lastly, install the drivers as admin. nVidia has addressed this issue here: nvidia.custhelp.com/app/answers/detail/a_id/5445/~/changes-to-the-display-driver-installation-process-under-microsoft-windows-7
    3. The reason Fortnite did not work on Win7, is because this March(very recently) Fortnite dropped support for Windows 7 and 8.x.
    4. I’m not sure why the games kept freezing and crashing, but you’re probably correct that it has to do with outdated nVidia drivers.
    Nonetheless, this was a great video.

      Windows 7 is not outdated too much if everything is patched for current suitation,I think Ramtech could do a revision multiple years later.
      If using XP,that would be a total different story just like the video you uploaded 10 months ago.I'm using POSReady 2009 as daily XP OS with everything patched through WIndows Update and WSUS Server.Most softwares stop supporting XP around 2014~2017 and some of them(Adobe Creative Suite) stop supporting XP before reaching the EOL date due to XPx86 was too common at that time.

    Been running windows 7 on a 3700X build I did back in 2020, had to hack in an NVME driver for the M.2 slot, it works alright. It allows me to run a simple smb file sharing network I can access anywhere on any device in my house, they took that away or made it difficult in Win 10/11. Thinking of upgrading it to Win 10 when I swap on either a 5800X3D or 5900X, but I use my 5700U laptop for almost everything lately.

    rocking win7 here since 2009. it's fine really since win7 is the basis for all post-windows os so the only reason something may be incompatible is if ms or the devs make it so. and even if they do, many "win 10+ only" games will run no problem just by replacing a .dll
    the main problem really is lack of keyboard and mouse drivers

    I'm looking to install Win 7 to one of the SSD drives on what will be the "new" day-to-day, because I have a number of mostly simple, really old games that I still occasionally enjoy wasting time with, that won't run on Windows 10/11.
    Hopefully, this tutorial will make that possible, and I'll be able to pass my older day-to-day to a relative whose computer not only has the nerve to be even older than my old one, but which has always had much worse specs!

    I use Win7 but only on old HW like Skylake or older using an ISO that was prepared by a Gigabyte tool that adds USB3 support circa 2015. It also stays offline, its a vastly better experience than Win 10 but its for SW development only. Any newer HW, it would have to run in a VM or use I Classic Shell to make Win10 look and feel older.
    Just for kicks, I have tried Vista because thats pretty close to Win7 but even harder to get running except on old 2010 mobos as used by i7 860 (no USB3 at all).

    A lot of people myself included would k177 to get Windows 7 to run on modern hardware.
    If you could evaulate a bunch of mobos and find the one that had the most support and build Windows 7 systems based on it, you could really make bank. Old people, or blind visually impaired people such as myself, loathe Windows 10 and can't stand it or can't use it.
    There is a massive niche market for people who would give their arm and a leg for the latest hardware running 7... for video production and actually... getting work done. Most of us have kept right on using Windows 7 right into 2023 without any issues and it runs smoking fast in 2023... albeit on our hardware that is now 10 years old. So we're dying for a hardware upgrade, but want nothing to do with an OS jump to an inferior operating system saturated with cruftware, telemetry spyware, and just messed up and changed everywhere for no reason at all... and with a completely unusable alphabatized START menu.

    • @CRACKBONE7317
      @CRACKBONE7317 Před 6 měsíci +1

      Latest hardware can run Windows 7. My current build is using mostly new components and has no issues thus far. Windows 7 64 bit will be compatible with 99% of hardware that runs Windows 10 and 11. The drivers might be an issue for a bit, but there is an extended kernel being worked on by some guys on the r/windows7 subreddit, so you should be just fine getting modern hardware to work with it. Windows 7 is the greatest operating system I have ever used. I grew up with it and fell in love with it. I learned to compute with it, and I will continue with it until my computer falls apart. At that point, I'll just give up on computing. Microsoft is getting far too comfortable with my private information.

      Actually, Windows 10 will be supported until 2032 OFFICIALLY the same way Windows 7 is supported until October 2024.
      Through official Microsoft patches intended for Windows Embedded POSReady (Windows 7) or Windows IoT (Windows 10) that are actually compatible with all versions of Windows 7 or Windows 10 respectively.
      Again, they're fully compatible with Windows 7 Pro / Windows 10 Pro (or Home, for that matter), and since they're officially sanctioned Microsoft drivers, you can keep using Windows 10 carefree for another *checks watch* 8 years 10 months and 11 days! (as of Nov 27 '23).

      Isn't necessary for another 2 years (so no one's made one yet) but when it happens, it should be more or less the same process as the tutorial above, just searching for Windows 10 IoT Extended Security Update drivers rather than Windows 7 Embedded POSReady Extended Security Update drivers. Might not be the same driver site (looks ancient) so I'd set a reminder to Google that for October 14, 2025. ;-)

Because I love Windows 7 for gaming! It come with two 1 TB Seagate hard drive (Advanced Format = AF) and it's CMR types. I did upgraded RAM to 16 GB DDR3 @ 1600 MHz from 8 GB DDR3 @ 1600 MHz and added Western Digital Blue 6 TB hard drive (CMR type) SATA for to put a lot of PC games on there. Finally play Starcraft 2 and SpellForce 3 (with modded to remove few useless effect like fogs, blur to increase FPS speed up gain about 10 - 15 FPS total about between 30 FPS - 45 FPS on Intel Core i7 3770 @ 3.4 GHz, 16 GB RAM DDR3 @ 1600 MHz with Nvidia GT 630 (Kepler type) with 2 GB DDR3 VRAM. Windows 7 rocking and very solid operating so far for 10 years! No motherboard failure, No GPU failure, No RAM failure, No Hard drive failure and No Power supply failure yet!!! If something go gone wrong then I know to fix is to replace hardware parts on myself. Powerful HP desktop computer model name is H8-1360T and it's beast gaming computer used low power without overclock so far! Hooray!!! 👍
    Because Windows 7 and Windows XP are real sister operating system which are best in the world!🤩
    I had old DELL computers with Windows XP used for gaming and love it. I played Starcraft, Warcraft 3, Age of Empire 2 and 3, SpellForce 1 to 2, Armies of Exigo, Age of Mythology and Stronghold games.
    I had MSI laptop come with Windows 10 (I disabled auto update with program name is StopUpdates10 to prevent any problems also it will work for Windows 11 and later to block auto Window updates) and play Nintendo Switch games on Yuzu emulator and Ryujinx emulator on Nvidia RTX 3060 and running amazing smooth. Awesome!
    I did try Linux Mint running on my Windows 7 used VMware Workstation Pro program without change operating system. I love Linux Mint look similar to Windows XP and 7.
    If Microsoft company doing a lot of worse in later new operating system then I will never touch it and will going to Linux Mint for everyday to use on internet in near future. Cheers

    I got my first Windows 7 install done not long after it was released in 2009. I still have two machines with it installed - a desktop which rarely gets used these days as I don't have the room for it and a laptop which was used regularly up until today when I finally replaced the monitor on a Linux box that I use at my bedside. For that matter, my single Windows 10 laptop is configured to look and (as far as possible) run like Windows 7. I've yet to try W11 but then I don't have a computer that would support it normally so I'd have to use one of the workarounds so I'll have to wait until one of my existing machines becomes available and isn't needed for anything. I just don't trust Microsoft updates!

    I can't get my motherboard to boot a known working WIndows 7 installer on USB key in CSM mode, so I made up a UEFI bootable one using an ISO from another CZcams video where the guy rolled in 800 drivers he scavenged from everywhere and baked into the ISO. I can boot it up all the way to the point of the WIndows 7 installer logo animation, and then it hangs right at the end of the animation.
    I'm going to follow your video and see if I can use the methods you used to get Win7 running on a Ryzen 9 7959x with 128gb RAM / Gigglebyte AORUS X670 Elite Gaming motherboard.
    I still use Windows 7 every day in 2023 for the last 10 years on an FX-8350 and it runs like a pimped out dream.
    At the moment I'm running Zorin OS (linux, but with a Win7 like interface) on the 8950x and it's not bad... It's actually pretty good, once you change a lot of things... dark theme it, increase mouse pointer size, icon sizes, text sizes, etc. However, I really need a WIn7 environment that can run Windows apps natively... mainly Sony Vegas. I bought a copy of WIn 10 and I'll install it as multiboot with eveyrthing else but man I so don't want to live on that desktop if I can avoid it any way possible.
    BTW, all my Steam games run just fine under Windows 7 on the FX-8350 in 2023 and I've never had an issue with them. Steam still supports Windows 7, although they've foolishly stated they are going to end that support Dec 2023.
