    Install windows 7 64 bit in UEFI mode


    Hi I am currently using windows 10. I want to install windows 7 64bit in UEFI mode. I have updated bios and disabled secureboot, legacy and fast boot. I have enabled SATA hotplug compatibility. I used Rufus to create a bootable UEFI compatible drive . The usb is detected in UEFI boot menu and I have installed the windows 7 and after that pc rebooted and now it is stuck in "starting windows" screen. I have restarted pc and chose safe mode . The loading freeze after "dual.sys". Please help me in solving this.

    Ok, you disabled secure boot. Did you enabled CSM Compatible System Mode?
    CSM must be set to run Win 7.

    What is CSM? I searched it in boot menu and I didn't get it.

    It is always very difficult to give support on Intel MB as their manual doesn't have the BIOS options.

    Hi,
    Possibly it would be best to take a picture of the bios boot section settings you do have :)
