Hello Dencorso, I use an Ivy Bridge running on XP. Sata AHCI driver - working Intel HD 4000 HDMI video driver - working Intel HD 4000 HDMI audio driver - working Those are the minimum requirements to install and use XP. Working SATA AHCI drivers, video driver, and audio driver. All the other things such as Wired Network and Wireless Network are optional and easy to find. Some may even choose not to install these drivers so that their system is more secure. Also I've seen some talk about getting Windows 2000 Professional working on an Ivy Bridge Z77. Does anyone have a direct link for stable SATA AHCI drivers to install by F6 floppy? My current chipset is the: Intel® 7 Series/C216 Chipset Family SATA AHCI Controller Device Instance ID: PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_1E02&SUBSYS_1E021849&REV_04\3&11583659&0&FA Are there any working Intel HD graphic drivers for installing under Windows 2000 Professional or been any development in programming an Intel HD graphics driver to use under Windows 2000 Professional and if possible Intel HD HDMI audio as well? This was my second favorite operating system before I was forced to use XP because software programs wouldn't install without the XP requirement. Furthermore, I'm also interested if it is possible to get Intel HD graphics driver to use under Window 98SE? Has someone made any headway in programming one or is it remotely possible to reverse engineer or modify the XP driver to work under 2000 and later refined to work under 98SE with HDMI and HDMI audio? This would be a tremendous step forward in furthering my legacy support all in one machine.
