and maybe a modded display driver can work on it?

Maybe it's possible to get the universal graphics driver for Windows 2000 running on XP. It supports your J1900 up to 4k while the official driver from Intel supports no more than 1920x1200 I think.

First time I've heard of drivers "killing the mobo"

What @D.Drakersays is ironclad. Faulty drivers can easily kill hardware, I had an Nvidia card killed due to overheating (over-voltage?) by their faulty driver 364. Just use search, it's well described.

confirmed working, and my BIOS' so-called "smart enabled" just means "disabled" but it doesn't disable actual USB3 controller but disconnects all downstream devices.

fixed by changing it to "enabled" and now it installs downstream device drivers happily and I can use all of them.

I can allow myself to buy a legit OS once in a twenty years

In that case, look for a support to the problem from the system manufacturer - good luck

Why you just won't copy-paste the whole post here? Have you no respect for MSFN?

I don't want to post a tutorial on a forum that will disappear from the web in a moment like reboot.pro

Yes, these drivers work 100% - I tested both 32-bit in XP 32-bit and 64-bit in XP 64-bit
The same drivers also work in Win7

Glad it works, all credits to daniel_k and reboot12 .
reboot12 did an excellent job by fixing the original driver.

although many people think J1900 (Intel Bay Trail) comes with ivybridge graphics, actually it is not.

it comes with Valleyview graphics that ivybridge display driver can't drive.

Yes. I just tested a E3815 processor. It has the Vallyview graphics, too:

I was too lazy to use a J1900 processor because I would need to install uniatat first.

@reboot12

I am not sure about this Valley-view graphik.

Is it 3D?

But I think such a hack would be easier for me than this crazy Wlan card

because the working driver is close to the existing one for XP,

Needs a lot of Hex work I think

Ivy Bridge and Valleyview are different graphics circuits. The J1900 processor has a Valleyview graphics circuit, no Ivy Bridge graphics circuit. The Valleyview graphics circuit has partial support for VGA and full support for Gen7LC. It has a unique clock generator. A driver for Ivy Bridge cannot configure this sub circuit so you can't simply modify the inf file of a Ivy Bridge driver to force the driver using a Vallyview graphics circuit anyway. The Ivy Bridge graphics circuit does not support Gen7LC, so it needs a different driver which supports a different graphics standard. Some rare graphics drivers, like the universal graphics driver for Windows 2000 support multiple graphics standards. Most support only 1 standard.

Some graphics circuits support a somewhat similar graphics standard than another graphics circuit uses. For example there are similarities between Gen7LC and Gen7 but they are not fully compatible. However, the Atom E3815 and the Celeron J1900 use the same graphics circuit so they can use the same graphics driver.
