Installing Windows 7 on the pure UEFI systems without CSM

You can try to install Windows 8 7880 on VirtualBox with UEFI enabled yourself

 

I don't know how to start UEFI on VirtualBox

 

Open the VM settings, select System, and on the Motherboard tab, select Enable EFI (special OSes only).

 

press any key to boot from cd or DVD.....

 

Just press any key when it prompts

 

I just tried it. Put the bootmgfw.efi (785kb) modified by FLASHBOOT into 7601 and do UEFI boot. It can’t boot, so it doesn’t mean that 7880 can’t boot the motherboard without CSM.

 

Can you send the patched bootmgfw.efi on PM (if you have it, as I am currently not going to spend money just to boot Windows 7 (and possibly Vista) on UEFI without CSM)? And BTW it will work with 7880 on VirtualBox (and with Windows Vista)?

 

Can it be sent out with his @ PrimeExpert Software consent, after all, his software is charged

 

Yeah, and in PM (private message), and also I will not send it to the public

 

I think 7880 kernel booting 7601 is the best, of course it can’t be compared with win10, but I feel that WIN10 is too difficult to modify

 

@PrimeExpert Software
Will the use of bootmgfw.efi cause the installation of the graphics card driver to fail, such as code 43 or some other problems,
Because I have encountered it on my laptop, but I don’t know if it is caused by this file.

 

I am going to try it on VirtualBox anyway, and BTW what graphics card you are using? As AFAIK only NVidia graphics card is affected by this problem.

 

Yes patched bootmgfw on some GPUs doesn't allow installation of correct GPU driver

 

I can try this if someone sends me the files

 

My RX 550 is too

7880 doesn't support CSM... I tested on real hardware.

 

Does not support CSM? You mean does not support UEFI class 3?

 

Yes
