Posted June 4, 201312 yr Picked up this board the other day with a 4770k and did a fresh install of XP but i'm not able to install the chipset drivers from the cd. Also checked the gigabyte site and saw no support for XP any thoughts on how to or where the get drivers for install? I've seen a few subs using XP on this platform around the bot. Any help would be great.
June 4, 201312 yr Do you mean the Intel INF drivers or the Intel Management Engine Drivers? At this point, Intel has not released ME drivers for XP. I have searched Intel's site and they were only for W7 and W8. https://downloadcenter.intel.com/Detail_Desc.aspx?agr=Y&ProdId=3598&DwnldID=22596&ProductFamily=Desktop+Boards&ProductLine=Intel%C2%AE+8+Series+Chipset+Boards&ProductProduct=Intel%C2%AE+Desktop+Board+DZ87KLT-75K&lang=eng So for now, BCLK adjustment will not work in Windows XP.

June 4, 201312 yr Author Not sure if they are INF and Intel Management Engine Drivers. But the issue is i have no drivers for CPU, chipset family, PCI bus ect ect ect.... So mostly everything within the Device Manager is without drivers. Think i've found part of my issue here: http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?286318-The-GIGABYTE-Z87X-OC-Review-with-4770K "Another issue is a platform issue, that is Intel's USB 3.0 really sucks without drivers, it wont even work without them(except in the UEFI). So when you install windows you need to use USB 2.0 ports or PS/2 or else you are in for a headache." Edited June 4, 201312 yr by Threedhero

The ME drivers I have allow me to change bclk in Windows with TurboV on the M6E.
June 5, 201312 yr The ME drivers I have allow me to change bclk in Windows with TurboV on the M6E. Windows XP? Can you check which version it is?
June 5, 201312 yr Yeah, that would be great. Is it the Z77 IME? Or were you able to install the Z87 W7 32-bit version in XP?
June 5, 201312 yr Author Okay i was able to get XP drivers loaded but now also having the same issue as Bass with BCLK clocking. Bass were you able to install Easytune? Also in the device manager do you have any devices not installed?
June 6, 201312 yr I was not able to get EasyTune to install in XP. GB is working on a GTL (Gigabyte Tweak Launcher) that should work with XP. Unknown if it will support BCLK overclocking or not. I've never looked in Device Manager because I never install USB3.0, audio, or Lan drivers for XP.
