100 series motherboard installation Win7 tutorial: Let Win7 also install

in the 100 series motherboards. With the arrival of Intel's Skylake platform, the problem that comes with it is that the Win7 system cannot be installed in the normal way. Intel's latest six-generation Skylake processor adds support for the USB 3.1 interface compared to earlier planning solutions, so it will no longer support the original EHCI master and change to the latest XHCI master. This change caused the USB interface to fail in the process of installing Win7. Not only can the USB keyboard and mouse be used to operate the installation interface, but the system cannot read the installation file in the USB disk. Install the USB flash drive.

If you use the CD-ROM to install the Win7 system, since Win7 does not include the USB3 driver, even if you can install it into the desktop, you will not be able to use the USB keyboard because of the lack of USB3 driver. Mouse, because Win 7 does not support the XHCI architecture used by the 100 series platform, XHCI is not backward compatible with EHCI. So in order to solve this problem, we must add the XHCI driver to the Win 7 installation image (CD) or U disk.

Intel six generations of 100 motherboards

At present, all motherboard manufacturers have their solutions, so that users can install Win 7 on the Skylake platform, you can flip through the product manual and you will find Win. 7 installation teaching, such as ASUS through their own software CD to help you install the operating system, provided that you have a SATA interface optical drive (now more and more computers do not need a CD-ROM drive), or teach you how to make can be installed Win 7 flash drive (U disk).

In order to let the Win 7 system continue to shine on the main version of the 100 series platform, let's start DIY on Win 7.

Workers must first sharpen their tools. Therefore, preparation before the operation is indispensable 喔~

1. Win7 original image (32-bit or 64-bit).

2. Intel USB3.0 driver download: undefined

3. Virtual CD-ROM, 7z or WinRAR decompression software, or WIN8 or above system environment can directly open the ISO image.

4. UltraISO floppy disk (used to package the image of the whole driver into an ISO image)

Step 1

Using a virtual CD-ROM to mount a Win7.iso image Or decompress the software to decompress the iso image, and... or directly open the iso image in the system environment above Win8

Find the "boots.wim" in the sources\\ path and "install.wim"; and “install.wim” Copy the two images to your computer's hard drive for later use.

Step 2

Add a folder to the location outside the computer C drive (model E slot), the name is win7, and add two more subfolders in this folder. Mount and usb3.

Put the two image files boot.wim and install.wim that you just copied to your hard drive into the win7 folder.

Step 3

Unzip the downloaded USB3.0 driver, locate the Drivers folder, and copy it to the usb3 subfolder.

Step 4

The Drivers folder has two subfolders, HCSwitch and Win7, and each of these two subfolders has a x64 x86 two-drive folder

The demonstration here is a 64-bit win7 system, so you can delete the x86 folder.

Step 5

Enter " in the search block CMD" Use the system administrator to open the command prompt character window. You can also use Windows PowerShell to operate,

As for the difference between the two, in fact, the operation is the same, but the latter is more powerful... friends who are interested in understanding, please use the search.

Step 6

In the "Windows PowerShell" CLI window or the command prompt character window....

Enter e: (press Enter)<

Enter cd win7 (press Enter)

Step 7

Enter or copy the following command to start mounting the image and search for usb3 file The XHCI driver in the folder is integrated into the boot.wim image file.

dism /mount-wim /wimfile:boot.wim /index:2 /mountdir:mount

dism /image:mount /add-driver:"usb3" /recurse

dism /unmount-wim /mountdir:mount /commit

The program moves to the red frame arrow above, the cursor stops flashing, press Enter (Enter), it will release The image is packaged into a boot.wim image

Packaged to automatically unmount the image, so the driver is successfully integrated.

Step 8

Enter or copy the following command to start mounting the image and search for the XHCI driver in the usb3 folder to be integrated into the install.wim image.

(Note here is index: 4, the number represents the 4th sub-image in the install.wim image)

dism /mount-wim /wimfile:install.wim /index:4 /mountdir:mount

dism /image:mount /add-driver:"usb3" /recurse

dism /unmount-wim /mountdir:mount /commit

If you want to integrate all the sub-image versions included in the Ultimate image into the driver, you must execute each sub-image (number) once!

The program moves to the red frame arrow above, the cursor stops flashing, press Enter (Enter), and the released image is packaged into install.wim image

Package completed automatically Unmount the image, and the driver is successfully integrated.

For Win7 Ultimate Mirror x86 and x64 versions (numbers) included:

(x86)

1. Starter --------- ------ Simplified version

2. HomeBasic ---------- Home Basic (Simplified) /Home Starter Edition (繁繁)

3. HomePremium - ----- Home Premium (Simplified) /Home Advanced Edition (繁繁)

4. Professional --------- Professional Edition

5. Ultimate -- ----------- Ultimate

(x64)

1. HomeBasic ---------- Home Basic (Simplified) /Home Getting Started Edition (繁繁)

2. HomePremium ------ Home Premium (Simplified) /Home Advanced Edition (繁繁)

3. Professional -------- - Professional Edition

4. Ultimate ------------- Ultimate

Step 9

It will be a good boot.wim And install.wim two image files, open the UltraISO floppy disk to load the original image, replace the boot.wim and install.wim image files in the original image, create a new ISO image, or use the tool to make a USB system. Installation disk.

Package system GHO WIM image driver integration

In fact, the steps are similar to the original ISO image above, a little troublesome One thing is the GHO image format packaged package system, but it is not really complicated to use the virtual machine to enter the PE system environment, restore the GHO image to the virtual machine hard disk, use DISM++ to load and then inject the driver.

The package system is almost fully automatic during the installation and deployment phase (unless there is a special need for personal settings, such as entering the user name), so there is no fear that the mouse and keyboard of the USB3 interface in the process cannot be Action, after installing into the desktop, there is also a universal drive blessing developed by the forum. In theory, there is no big problem! If you have an old packaging system, do not want to re-package or technical control toss and play, or have special hardware driver requirements, you can refer to this exchange to complete the driver.

The principle of doing a lot of fun is used to help the long-term packaging system to integrate the corresponding XHCI driver. We can use the DISM++ tool to manually re-enter the image after each recovery image to the system disk. Driver, for people who need to install the system from time to time... Time is money, it will be more practical to directly drive the driver into the image.

The most convenient package system for WIM image format packaging, refer to steps 1~9 above (slightly step 7) to add the added driver. Of course. You can also use the DISM++ tool to mission complete. GHO format images need to use the virtual machine environment to restore the GHO image to the virtual hard disk and then use the DISM++ tool to integrate the added drivers.

Turn on the DISM++ tool and mount the packaged WIM image system

Use the original image to do the demonstration. Actually, please choose according to your own image file.

Selecting the subimage in the image and specifying the folder path to release to will start releasing and mounting.

If it is a GHO image, use a virtual machine to recover to a virtual hard disk in a PE environment and then mount it with DISM++.

Image Mounting Complete Selection Drive Management → Add Driver, specify the folder where the driver will be placed and start the driver.

Driver addition is complete. If you want to package it into WIM image format, you can select the file to save in the upper left corner.

Save image or save as image

If you want to package an image into GHO format, you can use the GHOST related tool to package it, and the EasyImageX imaging tool can support WIM and GHO image formats.

Writing at the end

There are a lot of tools and methods to use. Here is just a communication, a start, the purpose is to make the installation more convenient and more accurate installation, not limited to only the USB3 driver. It is also possible to add special hardware drivers required for personal work areas and environments to make the system more customized. It is more convenient to install. Each person’s field is different, and it can grow faster through technical exchanges! The 100 series motherboards introduced in this article install the Win7 tutorial. The steps are somewhat cumbersome. It is suitable for friends who have a better understanding of the computer. The newbie may have some difficulty. It is recommended to read it a few times or learn in practice.
