@Lost_N_BIOS - There is no F8 or End keys to go to BIOS, just DEL. This motherboard has 8MB BIOS. The Asrock board has Instant Flash in BIOS.

@Lost_N_BIOS - Please read this:

F8 (IN BIOS) or END Key at startup are how you use/Enter Qflash, on models that have it. DEL yes, this always goes to BIOS.
Asrock yes, Instant Flash (that's same thing as Qflash, but Gigabyte didn't put in this model)

Still waiting on your answer/test results, did you try the two BIOS at post #24 yet?

Also, please edit your posts when you want to add more thoughts or info and no one has replied yet, instead of making multiple posts in a row - thanks

Ahh, so you need INF which I mentioned, and linked for you. And TXE Drivers (As mentioned and linked), and USB 3
Not sure what you wanted me to see there? All things I already linked for you, and some things specifically that tells you how to install too (See #4).

If you have issues with the install (he's talking about Rufus), I always suggest using the Microsoft USB/DVD install too (ignore sys spec/requirements, I use on Win7-10 all the time)

@Lost_N_BIOS - I sent the CH341A back to Amazon for a replacement. When it comes, I will try to update the BIOS. I used Asrock Win7UsbPatcher(v2.0.21_Apollolake). Windows 7 32-bit installed fine, there is no USB 3.0 problem. I only search for the TXE and SerialIO for this board.

@Lost_N_BIOS How did you think solving the video problem? I looked for other systems with this SoC and latest bios updates- versions are (very) close to what's used in the mentioned boards. (Bios update for Intel N Celeron is august '20, J Celeron december '19)



Latest DXE is 10.0.1037, Asrock has already 1036/ GB is on 1030, GOP VBT ist 207 on all, and 206 OROM is latest version on all. Intel bios for NUC8CCHKR is from august '20.


@ptran3014 Why did you choos this hardware/ OS combination? Is there a special reason that you have to work with Win7/Win10 32 bit systems on systems which officially are only designed for W10 64 bit?

Did you try latest Win7-32 graphics driver from mentioned series (21.20.16.5103)? (Link)

I need low cost and cooler motherboards (ITX) for this project. I need both PCI and PCIE slots for high end sound cards. Windows 7 32-bit needs to be used for the Piano Discovery software (16-bit). I need real time with no latency for audio ASIO, I cannot use virtual machine software due to the high latency. Gigabyte GA-J1900N-D3V motherboard which has all drivers for Windows 7 32-bit but I cannot find them NEW in the market, there are few were sold used on eBay. The Gigabyte GA-J3455N-D3H was chosen because it has the PCI, the Asrock J3455-ITX was chosen because someone reviewed this board on Amazon stated he found all drivers for Windows 7. I downloaded the Dell package from above link but when I run, it failed to install or extract (it cannot find the system ID). Graphics performance is not an issue. I can use the standard VGA driver if there is no modded BIOS or VGA driver for it. However if there is one, it is better than the vanilla one from Microsoft.
A modded VGA driver I am looking for should have hardware IDs: 5A85. Someone reviewed this Asrock board posted: "The most annoying part is that the VGA bios needs to be set as legacy for windows 7 installation and the instllation of the display driver for kabylake/apollo lake, but once you finished the installation of the beta video driver and clicked reboot, you need to go into bios setting and change the VGA bios under CSM to UEFI only mode otherwise windows 7 will just crash."
I am not doing this to destroy Intel + Microsoft hype but for young people who are learning to play Piano.

@Lost_N_BIOS - I plan to buy some MSI J1900I ITX motherboards. These boards have all Windows 7 32-bit drivers. I contacted MSI for a custom BIOS but they don't reply. I guess MSI does not care because they sold out and the board is not manufactured any more. Can you help me to replace the BIOS logo?

@ptran3014 - what happened to your CH341A??
Here, please test for J1900I Logo change only - Flash via M-Flash, do not rename the file - https://www.sendspace.com/file/q2rwqh
Should be no problem here, this model has 100% "Normal" BIOS

@lfb6 - I did not get there yet, waiting to find method to not brick the BIOS during ANY mod first
Video issue for Win7 is solved by BIOS settings, and or possibly vBIOS or GOP Update (see Amazon link above, settings solved it on Win7 for them)

@Lost_N_BIOS - Because the 1.8v adapter was bad, I had to send everything back to Amazon for a replacement.
Sendspace does not allow me to download. I tried to create a free account but their system blocks yahoo email.
Is there anything else you modify / replace in the BIOS or just only logo?

@ptran3014 - Sorry about that, there is no need to register or anything at sendspace Sounds like you may have clicked on an ad there or something, I have good ad blocker so I don't see them anymore.
Here is mirror - https://ufile.io/ce2bbsni

I downloaded the drivers as per instruction from the man on Amazon but the hardware IDs were not matched. I modified the INF hardware IDs, everything is working, both Intel(R) Trusted Execution Engine Interface and GPIO Controller. However, the Gigabyte mother has two new Unknown devices: PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_5A9C&CC_0780 and PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_5A9E&CC_0780. I had to modify the Intel INF to make them as NULL drivers. Please let me know if anyone needs the drivers and INF files. This is for 32-bit, you can make the 64-bit drivers.

According to what you mentioned above, you don't need this modded drivers. You need the following to support NVMe in Windows 7:
1. Download updates User-Mode and Kernel-Mode Driver Framework version 1.11 for Windows 7
2. Download updates to support NVMe for Windows 7: Windows6.1-KB2990941-v3-x64.msu or Windows6.1-KB2990941-v3-x86.msu
3. Download the hotfix updates for above: Windows6.1-KB3087873-v2-x64.msu or Windows6.1-KB3087873-v2-x86.msu

You need to integrate those updates to Windows 7 image or it will not see NVMe drives when installing. Use NTLite (free version) or MSMG_ToolKit.

@Kyo23 Where do you see the similarity to your problem here? You asked in all your other posts for a H55 motherboard with a Non- Uefi bios (Award)?

....... But the problem would be my MBR BIOS ... because if Windows cannot read GPT from UEFI there would be another new problem.
