Can I run Windows RT on an existing ARM based device such as a Blackberry Playbook, Xoom, Samsung Tab, Acer Iconia Tab or Apple iPad? A: Windows 8 does not support processor architecture’s based on ARM which is in your Tablet. You need an Intel or AMD x64 or x86 processor in order to evaluate the Windows 8. Drivers Martech Box.

Microsoft has worked with partners to release devices based on ARM. Those will come preloaded with Windows RT. Here is a list of Tablets that support Windows RT: Best, Andre Windows Insider MVP MVP-Windows and Devices for IT twitter/adacosta groovypost.com.

I need to install Windows 7 on my ASUS T100TA, Windows 8.1 very lagging, so why don't try install Windows 7? First, I prepared 32-bit Windows 7 install USB, entered into BIOS, disabled Secure Boot, but USB didn't boot, EFI is 32-bit, without Legacy Boot option, I also tried other way: Created Windows PE 5.1 bootable USB with extracted Windows 7 ISO, It successfully booted, I opened Command Prompt and run Windows 7 setup, accepted licence, selected 'Custom install', deleted ALL partitions from 32GB Flash drive, created new partition, but It can't install Windows 7 there (missing Intel SD Host Controller driver). Can anybody help me unlock the Legacy Boot option or give me the BIOS-emulation bootloader? AFAIK, there's no way to add BIOS/CSM/legacy support to a firmware that lacks that support, short of replacing the firmware. Even if you did that, it wouldn't help with driver support issues, which is your problem. To that end, you should check with ASUS, or with whoever made the controller for your 'disk' (really flash storage) device.

Even if you get this support, AFAIK Windows 7 won't work well on a tablet because of user interface issues. Personally, I'd stick with Windows 8, return the computer for a refund/replacement, or maybe look into running Android on it. – Oct 10 '15 at 16:48 •. I have a ASUS M81C which is the same situation as yours, after months research, try and fails, I gave up. The reason why it's impossible is, Windows 7 only have partial UEFI support on 64 bit version(need CSM), and have no UEFI support on 32 bit. Also, it's nearly impossible to modify the BIOS to add CSM or even legacy mode, you cannot unlock it because it non-exist on your system. And about chain loading, AFAIK, it's not possible on Windows.

If you think about Linux, yes you can have a 64 bit Linux OS on it, but it needs a lot of tweaking and it's buggy. So we have to live with windows 8 or windows 10, and 32 bit only. How I can install Windows 7 First of all, it depends on how you want to install it. Classic/Legacy mode: • You need an option in the UEFI firmware do disable the dreaded secure boot. • You would need a EFI firmware which emulates int 10, else the installation crashes (sometimes available as 'windows 7 mode'.) • You need a USB pendrive with a valid bootsector (or a DVD).

EFI mode • You need windows 7 64 bit ( not 32 bits, then again, nobody used a 32 bit OS anymore). • You need a windows 7 DVD, or a pendrive formatted in FAT32 (not NTFS!), and with avalid /boot/bootx64.EFI file (which you would need to move manually). • And you still need an EFI firmware with a 'windows 7 mode' to emulate or capture int10.

Obviously you will also need relevant drivers. Drivers are usually ignore since windows 7 was great with build-in drivers. But for a modern laptop, especially those with USB3 ports, you will need additional drivers for things like USB, thunderbolt etc etc.
