AMD E1 runs like crap on Windows 8 and reasonably on Windows 7.
I was wondering if on Windows XP it will have at least a graphics driver to install, I checked on the amd website and there's no XP driver so not sure if the Windows 7 driver would work.

Microsoft rewrote the kernel for Vista, which is what 7, 8, and 10 are based on. XP uses the older Windows NT kernel, so there's zero chance a Win 7 driver works on XP.

If you're not in need of any specific Windows program and willing to use Linux, check out Xubuntu. It should perform much better.
