SharkVader66 Posted May 1, 2020 Posted May 1, 2020 Is there any motherboard that supports intel 4th gen cpu's (Ill be using i7 4790) and has driver support for xp (most preferably xp x64). Unnoficial drivers are fine.

Unnoficial drivers are fine. I have installed XP on these motherboards using the i7-4790K CPU: GIGABYTE GA-Z97M-DS3H GIGABYTE GA-Z97-HD3 ASRock Z97 Pro3 ASRock Z97 Anniversary (XP x64) All drivers are available for the Gigabyte boards. The ASRock boards come with the i218v LAN, so I installed Realtek LAN cards instead. Subsequently, @bearwindows shared an x86 driver for the i218V LAN (which I have not tested), and also for XP x64 (which did not work for me): https://msfn.org/board/topic/176687-seaching-for-intel-210-219-lan-xp-2003-32-64-bit-driver/?do=findComment&comment=1162644 So you're in business, if you can find one of those boards.

None of those motherboards have windows xp drivers on their websites?
bluebolt Posted May 2, 2020 Posted May 2, 2020 Right, use audio and LAN drivers from the Realtek website, video driver for whatever card is used, and Intel (or blackwingcat) chipset INFs. Here's a Gigabyte board:
