As a last resort you may try a custom Win7 image (i.e. from Gen2) with all the updates included till Dec 2019 or Jan 2020, maybe it consists of newer software (kernel etc.) that doesn't give this ACPI error. Or, look through the forums to see, maybe someone created a custom Win7 kernel mod that works on Ryzen - just like the Hackintosh+AMD people are doing, modding a kernel and creating the custom installation images; something like this should exist for Win7 I hope. If you succeed, your next challenge would be the lack of drivers - i.e. if there are no Win7-compatible USB drivers, your USB ports wouldn't work. I've installed Win7 to my friend's laptop with some really new Intel, almost everything works but except WiFi and USB - because lazy Intel didn't make the Win7 compatible drivers for these devices - and now all hope is on modding community to somehow mod the Win10 drivers to work on Win7 (could be hard since these drivers are closed source; maybe it's possible to somehow virtualize a mini Win10 environment and passthrough these devices to it if IOMMU works?) As a coreboot couldn't help you since it doesn't support Ryzen, any further ideas should be discussed/requested either privately or on another mailing list to stay ontopic. _______________________________________________ coreboot mailing list -- coreboot@coreboot.org To unsubscribe send an email to coreboot-le...@coreboot.org
