i3 6100 Windows XP

[bjaren]

Hi

I heard that G4560 core cant install in it Windows 7 or Windows XP , Only windows 10 because the kaby lake feature , so i think to try the i3 6100 core.

My question is windows xp will work in the i3 6100 ? Or maybe the windows 7 ?

Windows XP no, Windows 7 yes. I do not recommend using an old OS, for security and features reasons, though.

If you can not find a socket 1150 motherbaord with windows xp drivers then there is no support for windows xp.

I cant understand all of this desire for people to run new hardware on Windows XP. It is a 15 year old operating system with poor security when it was new and now completely unpatched and vulnerable. Not to mention most software vendros have pulled the cord on being compatibale with XP so you would have to play find the 7 version old software game just to get something to run.

Why windows XP no ? Forget about no support anymore to that OS , its will work if i installed XP ? Because windows 7 not supported too , so i think XP should work too...

 

[logainofhades]

There aren't any XP drivers, for the motherboards. Motherboard vendors dropped such support years ago. The boards do support windows 7, but the install can require some extra work, if trying to install from a USB drive. XP is dead, and a security nightmare.

Hmm

This motherboard good for XP using ?

Asus H110M-K LGA1151, Intel H110, DDR4, PCI-E, VGA, DVI

 

[bjaren]

So ? i3 6100 can run in windows xp but hard ?

 

[logainofhades]

No it is not going to work. There are 0 XP drivers for an i3 6100 build. Based on czar357's comment, the best you are going to get is an AMD APU. Another option is to find a used Sandy bridge/Ivy bridged based system, and even then may be motherboard specific. That is the newest Intel platform that you are going to find with XP support. My old Z77 extreme4 had XP support.

And if someone 'needs' XP, just run it in a VM.

 

[bjaren]

What is VM ?

What is VM ?

Virtual Machine. A representation of a whole PC in software.
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_machine

Here, this is 2 Virtual machines guests (Linux Mint and Ubuntu), running in a Win 10 host.

Literally, 3 different OS's running at the same time in a single physical PC.
I use VirtualBox, but there are others.

Not good for games, but then neither is XP nowadays.

Im got xp working with my old pc good its pentium 4 , so problem with the new cores that not support xp ?

 

[logainofhades]

The problem is driver support was not included, for newer platforms, and XP. You would need to look at 2nd/3rd gen i series to get XP support. XP was relevant, when P4's were out. It is a dead OS now.

 

[bjaren]

And windows 7 same problem ?

 

[logainofhades]

Skylake has support for Windows 7.

Hmm if i install windows 7 and changed the theme to windows XP , this not cause lag ?

 

[logainofhades]

A theme is just visual changes. It would not cause a performance issues.

 

[bjaren]

Guys im asking again about the windows 7 , heard that not sure to find drivers for that OS to the i3 6100.

Anyone installed that OS in that Core Already ? Dont want to face problems when i will install the Windows 7

 

[bjaren]

Hope someone tried the windows 7 , so the pc got that mother board

Asus H110M-K LGA1151, Intel H110, DDR4, PCI-E, VGA, DVI
