You need a "special" Windows install dvd or usb for your motherboard. The mobo manufacturers usually have a guide on "slipstreaming" usb/sata/raid drivers into an existing Windows media. First thing I would do is check with your motherboard manufacturer.

Easy... #1 Use a older system to install a fresh copy of windows 7 onto a new ssd. #2 Sysprep the installation once you hit the desktop. #3 Move the ssd to the new system with the 7xxx series cpu. #4 Done.

So much hate for Windows 10, when it's really pretty nice. Just disable the stuff you don't want if you're really paranoid about Microsoft "watching" you or whatever the reason might be for not upgrading.

How do you mean? Look if Im buying a new mother oard with chipset/socket 1151/i7 7700k version.. It DOESNT support Windows 7. Because its lacking usbdrivers for that socket.. Soo how can stil manage or installing windows 7 with usb drivers? Dont wanna windows 10 is because of the programs doesnt work on 10. No hate or anything.

What about if you using a raid 0 config? If Its going to the desktop and sysprek its still need for installing drivers.

Yes, there are drivers as usual. No need to worry. You can install Windows 7 if you wish.

1151 motherboards have support for Windows 7 though. My reasoning is because the motherboards I've looked at (1151) have Windows 7 drivers on their website. I don't see a reason why they won't work, despite that link. Workaround for USB devices - https://www.asus.com/us/support/FAQ/1013649

That's only for asus, what about msi then? They dont support the usb drivers on the latest serie intel chips https://support.microsoft...e-windows-version-thatAbove I see only asus supporting windows 7 support, what about other manufacturers?

MSI has Windows 7 drivers too. I just looked at a random 1151 board, the Z170A Gaming M5. They are there too.

Upgrade to Windows 10. Some people may put it down, but I have no problems with it. People need to get with the times. ;)

I would just install your Windows 7 and troubleshoot it but judging by the driver availability, I don't think you'll have a problem.
