It was really weird. I did not understand.
Nobody *hates* Windows 7 that much, even the most convinced updooter would still admit to some fond memories when it was the latest and greatest.
Those shills were out of this world, I personally think it was glowies trying to phase out Windows 7 faster from the West and make modern software not run on it anymore, because the Rooskies and Chineezusses still use it, and the Ayyyrabs probably as well, you can never trust those sand-niggers.

>>101576189
you might want to take a look at documentation of Windows' userland API, the NT kernel's and system calls as well. Also you might want to learn how to decompile and/or analize those calls that your application is making and failing under Windows 7, then compare to a working Windows installation and implement those features for 7

just thinking out loud here, I might be wrong so anons feel free to correct me

You literally just install VxKex and hope whatever you're trying to run works. Past that, you're going to need to know how to reverse engineer software or compile it from source.

What was the process to get 7 running on the 13700k like? Do you have to disable the estrogen cores not to run into scheduling issues?
>>
>>101576599
Depends which way you want to go. One is the manual method and the other is a package that does it all for you.
eCores are enabled and Windows 7 treats it as 2 CPU's. No scheduling issues.

>>101576675
Yeah. Newer CPU's will work on about any OS. It's the drivers that are the problem. What the guy likely did in the article was run a PCI USB or PS2 card, old GPU etc.

As for scheduling, if anything.. Windows 11 is worse.
Windows 10 would just trickle down each core where as Windows 11 would use 6 of the P cores and 1-2 of the eCores for games and 1% lows would be kinda funky sometimes.

You need a computer old enough to run 7. New hardware doesn't work properly. Enjoy your Chinese spyware drivers I suppose. I don't hate 7 but I wouldn't trust it with anything.

This but unironically. A computer that oficially supports 11 costs like 200$ nowadays and there is a chance that your current machine can run it just fine (if you have at least sandy bridge/bulldozer cpu).
>i wish thirdies would stop pretending updooting is some kind of signal for high class/wealth.
Its a signal for being a reasonable person. Using outdated software on purpose when you can update is a signal of severe braindamage. And I am european btw.

to be honest ever since I moved to Linux I really don't quite get the use for something like Windows 7. Debian KDE is a perfectly good replacement. You can even use the built-in Oxygen theme for your ugly Frootiger needs.

I would certainly not login to my mail on a PC running a browser made by who-knows-who, on a custom kernel made by who-knows-who, installed from an ISO gotten who-knows-where...
>>
>>101583085

Yes. I currently run Debian 10, and only use Windows 7 for a few select programs that won't run in WINE.

it's not so much preaching as it is genuine curiosity, apart from running a few programs that don't run on linux, I don't understand what purpose Windows 7 serves in 2024 as more and more things stop supporting it.
Using it in 2020 or 2021 when it was just a year outta date, sure, but in 2024, going on 2025, when almost no modern hardware supports it, and almost no software from the last 2 years supports it...

Unless you're running it as a nostalgia time capsule, if you intend to use it day in day out and you have to fish for bizarre kernels and strange offshoots of Firefox or Chromium... perhaps it's time to move on.

Talking about yourself?
The (completely artificial, mind you) lack of support doesn't change that it's the greatest Windows release ever.
>>
>>101587182
Not him but you need to understand that legacy support costs money and time, therefore a lot of developers decided to remove support for deadshitos because they noticed that its not worth supporting it just to make their program run on 2% more computers out there, especially when most people demanding support for those are one of the most annoying faggots on earth. The fact that you have to unload your frustration every hour on /g/ since years only proves that point. People offered you various solution to your retarded use cases, like using rufus to bypass Windows 11 requirements or giving linux a try but you always say that this is not enough for you, probably because mommy and daddy never taught you to cope with reality. You all just seem to enjoy being miserable, pathetic cunts for some reason, maybe you just miss those good, old days when you came from school with your face beaten every other day.
