Since Windows 11 nowadays are able to be installed with legacy mode, isn't it possible for 32 bit uefi tablets/device that have 64 bit compatible cpu to run 64 bit Windows 10 or 11 with bootia32 version of uefiseven?

Greetings,

can uefiseven be installed on a live (pre-installed) system ?

best regards

Does it work on Windows Vista/Server 2008? You know, the same situation exists with him. Does it work in RTM/SP1/SP2?

My specs: Acer Aspire F5-571 34Z0 - i3 5005U - 4GB - Intel HD 5500.
I disabled Secure Boot but it's not booting, keep freezing at boot logo. Is there any workaround for this?

Hello,

Would this hack still allow the system to work with a VGA driver? My friend's GPU has no driver for Windows 7, but the VGA driver should work fine for sometime. The laptop is an UEFI class 3 system, so no CSM/Legacy.

Initially I've installed windows 7 sp1 via dism as I couldn't boot the normal installer. Then I couldn't boot the installed Windows in (U)EFI mode of course, so I added hybrid MBR to the disk, booted in legacy mode and performed initial OS configuration as well as Bootcamp drivers installation.

Now tried this project to boot in (U)EFI mode properly. I've deleted the hybrid MBR using gdisk and ran bcdboot from Windows 10 to generate boot files. From UEFISeven's output it seems that all went well, however booting fails:

• normal boot: just see black screen, then machine reboots
• safe mode: reboot happens after I see message about loading CLASSPNP.sys

I saw identical behavior when trying to boot without this project.

Output:

I've tried 2 ways of booting: with iGPU (Intel i5 Arrandale) and dGPU (Nvidia GT330M), windows 8.1 and 10 boot fine with either. Also prior to booting tried mm commands in the EFI Shell to set dGPU to bus master, activate VGA on the PCI bridge and disable iGPU completely (this procedure helps using dGPU properly in Windows 10 UEFI mode), but no luck either.

Then also by accident I've renamed bootmgfw.original.efi to something else which failed to attempt booting windows of course, but after renaming it back and second attempt the program's output was a bit different, although the result didn't change, not sure if it matters though.

I've also tried the original VgaShim from https://github.com/driver1998/VgaShim but it didn't help either.

Any idea what else to try?

P.S. My MBP has EFI version 1.10.

I would assume this is because it uses its own driver, but I wanna bypass this and make my new driver override. I'm assuming my code 12 issue is this, because I tried lowering VRam, highering it, etc.

Or if there's a different patch that does this. Already tried the 2022 september update to no avail.
I also have an issue where I have to manually boot off a thing with a different bootx64, since this thing is buggy.

I'm gonna replace the boot.wim in Windows to the modified ISO one.
Fix this thing please.

So no one has to boot into a UEFI shell and move files around.

Extract it on your Win 7 ISO in the “efi\boot” folder and rename it to bootx64.efi

So I used UEFI7 for the USB Windows 7 intaller, and it boots, however it hangs at Starting Windows on my XPS 15 7590 after the initial installation, and the only EFI partition on disk is the Windows 10, so Im wondering how do I get UEFI7 to work on a dualboot solution?

If anyone has purchased a flashboot pro 3.3 licence and created a uefi windows 7 install please share the iso file many of us couldn't afford it it would be very helpful

Anyone know how to fix this? My pc specs are
Processor 11th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i3-1115G4 @ 3.00GHz 2.19 GHz
Installed RAM 8.00 GB (7.73 GB usable)
System type 64-bit operating system, x64-based processor
Dell Insprion 5050

I did everything like in the instructions but when i try to install windows i get stuck at Starting Windows and like i said the Windows 7 logo doesn't even show up. Tried another USB stick and ISO but it didn't worked.

GenFvInternalLib.c:24:10: fatal error: uuid/uuid.h: No such file or directory

Windows installation was successful. the video card driver does not start (error 43), there are graphic artifacts and win7 did not detect the battery. are there any ways to solve these problems?

The log or verbose don't seem to show anything.
I have enabled fakevesa but it didn't do much.
If I try to install Windows through Windows 11 it freezes on the 'Starting Windows' screen.
My laptop is an Acer Nitro AN515-42 with a Ryzen 5 2500U and RX 560/Vega 8 Graphics.
Is there any reason for this bug happening?

I'm installing windows 7 using uefiseven on a Packard Bell Easynote ENTE11HC. The setup got to the first reboot and it got stuck on "Starting Windows". I tried rebooting it but when I try launching in safe mode, it gets stuck on disk.sys . Can anyone help me try to fix this?

in case you are one of the very few lucky ones that UefiSeven does work for you, but you can't find a graphics driver, you are then stuck with a 1024x768 resolution which now-days is non-functional

you may want to give a try to Display1_DownScalingSupported (have not tried it myself)

Hi. Your binary is working perfectly if you have a native graphic driver for seven.
More and more computers comes now without a driver for it, a substitute will be a "wrapper" like vbemp (I use it for XP 64 and works perfectly with Uefiseven).
For that usage, gop resolution need to be changed from native 1024 (can't be used for browsing today) and winload.efi to be modified to desired gop resolution (not the question here).
Is it possible to add a section "gop resolution" in ini file and modify the code to read it at execution ?

So it gets stuck on windows logo. Help pleas (My system is hp pavilion 16)

Hi guys I tried uefi seven it didn't worked sadly I tried to mode the kernel of the windows 7 and then I reinstall windows 7 with uefi seven and boom it works and but after going past boot screen I get bsod I tried booting in safe mode and safe mode works perfectly

Is there a win 7 32 bit uefiseven option for uefi class 3 computer?

After updating it said that bootmgfw.original.efi didn't exist, going in verbose mode it can find it

has anyone been able to use UefiSeven & install a working graphics driver (other than the default system VGA) & been able to use resolutions higher than 1024x768 ?

Hello, my device is surface pro 4(GPU intel HD520) and the bios supports neither CSM nor Legacy Boot Mode. Before installation, I injected drivers(intel graphics, ssd controller, xhci...) into the pure image and made sure the Secure Boot is off. Instead of the first reboot, I followed all your instructions step by step on WinPE. And here is what happened when I reboot. Then the installation process stuck at "starting windows". After a few seconds, it automatically reboot and then repeated what I mentioned above.

After completing all the steps, I just got an endless boot with the motherboard logo.

You must fix your tool.

Anyone tried using this to run TRX40 on windows 7?

Can u fix chkdsk? i formated so many times because this and other users can do this

Windows 7 gets stuck on installer saying starting windows but the windows logo is formed
The log says its fine

I am using a Dell G3 3500, and have done the procedure of Steps 2 & 3 (for the installation media) and Steps 7 & 8 (for a transported Windows 7 installation from another computer). The installation media freezes at the Starting Windows screen, and the installed OS briefly freezes with a red line on top but restarts the computer.
This error message appears before the boot screen (F8 variant - the one that disappears quickly omits the last two paragraphs):

Unable to find a way to unlock memory at C0000. Proceeding without unlocking...
Unable to unlock VGA ROM memory at C0000, aborting
F8 keypress detected, switching to text mode
Press Enter to continue and then immediately press F8 again

iirc this error also occurred in QEMU.
I looked in the previous Issues articles and some others appear to be having the same problem with different models.

Ok I tried uefiseven and did everything step by step but still Im getting stuck at windows flag boot animation tried every versions of uefiseven but no luck . It is a Asus vivobook x412da with ryzen 5 3500u and Radeon vega 8 integrated graphics it is pure uefi no CSM .please help me boot windows 7 in my lapp . I love windows 7/Vista ui

I think this project is deserted

I have been trying all morning to get the windows 7 installer to boot on my laptop, and it never booted, this is what i saw in verbose mode after it hung:

EDIT: I saw that there was a fakevesa option, so I tried it. It still hung.

does anyone know how vbt works for intel igpu thx

I've replaced the boot file in the EFI on an installed version of Windows 7. Once upon booting I was able to hear the startup sound but it remained on the start up animation. Most of the time it just sticks on the start up animation. However when pressing F8 to try Safe Mode I was greeted with this message about the VGA ROM.

I'm using a MSI MPG X570 Gaming Plus and a Ryzen 5 3600. System boots without issue when CSM is enabled but other systems wont.

Shall I rename the bootx64 from win 7 archive or copy it straight?
And what is EFI shell?
Sorry, I am really confused by English language strange precision...

Greetings,

I am trying to port an existing win7 system to a new J4125 UEFI only hardware. I have tested in the past this hardware with a different win7 system with success.

on this specific system though, with latest simplix installed & updated, I get no video output. system is working though and pressing power-off, shuts down properly.

Edit: the above issue was due to (apparently) problematic Copy UefiSeven bootx64.efi to (HDD)\EFI\Microsoft\Boot\bootmgfw.efi & has now been resolved. the issue with the missing UefiSeven.log bellow, remains.

besides that, the problem that I would like to report is that the logfile=1 option is not working. It does not create the UefiSeven.log file. Other options, such as verbose or skiperrors do work.

regards
