Windows 7
Asus ROG MAXIMUS Z690 APEX
BIOS 0073 (10/06/2021)
https://hwbot.org/submission/4846721_saf...dram_4331.5_mhz

and

Windows XP
ASRock Z690 AQUA OC
BIOS 1.50 (10/19/2021)
https://hwbot.org/submission/4846841_spl...8p)_7525.65_mhz
https://valid.x86.fr/4tb1c4

Some Z690 OC motherboards still seem to be compatible with Windows 7 and Windows XP

Great find but I think Safedisk also had some old BIOS for Apex on LGA1200 but it was not a solid BIOS, just only made to run on Win7 it's on HWbot forum. Might be a similar case. Edit - ASUS released a new BIOS for Z590 at hwbot which has Win7 and XP support, they won't A5 BSOD I guess However if those are correct and accurate that means there's a CSM option even on Z690 however not sure how Windows 7 can handle these small cores. Raptor Lake is even going to add more E cores to the mix. Win10 also has issues if we see Anandtech on ADL handling at the moment as per their take.

i could not find where is the new Asus Bios for z590 that support Windows 7 thow..

@Saud: Why did you buy a brandnew mainboard with an Intel Z590 chipset, when you want to run an outdated OS like Win7?

This BSOD indicates, that the mainboard BIOS doesn't deliver the ACPI settings, which are required to get Win7 installed.

My current System:
