    If there was a way to hide Windows 7 from new applications and let us install them on Windows 7, would be great. There is a custom kernel for Windows 98 called Kernelex that adds Windows 2000 and XP compatibility mode to Windows 98. Of course not all applications work, but you can right-click on the shortcut, go to Compatibility tab and set to Windows XP SP3 and find out.

    Thanks SIW2, I'll look for those. So, pretty much any 300 series should be OK?

    Yes as far as I know all the intel 300 series consumer motherboards work fine. If it comes with a wifi card that might not have win7 drivers ( e.g. ac9560) but they can be changed with a cheap card that does support win7 for about a fiver.
    Canonkong : replace the WiFi card with 8260/8265AC,RTL8822CE,Killer 1535 which can work on win7.


    If you don't use wifi it is irrelevant.

    It you extract from he wireless driver in a folder, you could try manually force it in Device Manager. It might work and only the installer being incompatible with Windows 7.

    No. Some of the z390 come with wifi cards that cannot work with win7. It is not a problem. If wireless is not needed, disable it in bios. If it is needed replace the card.

    Depends what you want. The advantage of b365 over the h310

    6 usb3 ports gen1 ( instead of just 4 on h310 )
    6 sata 3 ( instead of just 4 on h310 )
    4 ram slots ( instead of just 2 on h310)
    pcie 3.0 x4 m2 ( instead of pcie 3.0 x2 on h310 so twice the speed )
    pcie 3.0 x4 port for an extra nvme with a cheap adapter or any other peripheral ( not present on h310)
    pcie 3.0 x1 port ( instead of pcie 2.0 x1 on h310 so twice the speed)

    some of the b360 have couple of usb3 gen 2 type A slots on the back panel
