First notes:
Wyndows 7 is a play on words.
What is this:
This will hopefully be a soon finished project to get Windows 7 natively running on the Dell Wyse 3040 Computer.
What I need:
I should mostly be able to get this myself, but some drivers I might need to reimplement (such as disk.sys) might not play well if a Windows 10 version is used on Windows 7 specifically for eMMC. Additionally, I might skip the graphics driver because Intel, nor Dell provide graphics drivers for the Atom x5-Z8350, nor do the Cherry Trail drivers work. I have extracted the driver from Windows 10 1507, but I highly doubt they would work without modifying the INF file. Another caveat is UEFI. The Wyse 3040 on the latest bios does NOT have CSM, and from my experience, the Windows 7 installer doesn't boot on UEFI without CSM. Any help is greatly appreciated!

Before posting:
Ensure its actually useful info: Things like "You're wrong" are not helpful. Be more descriptive. Same with "Not possible." BE DESCRIPTIVE!

If you find Cherry Trail eMMC drivers for Windows 7 PLEASE post them.
