Is this motherboard compatible with Windows 7 OS?

It does work with Windows 7. I had it running on that for a several months. I have upgraded to Windows 8 Pro and it is still running fine.

It will be able to run all current, old and future versions of windows. Unless something drastic happens like quantum computing or we upgrade to 128 bit computers.

The OS on this unit is actually going to be Win7 PRO 64bit. Please let us know if you have any other questions.Thank You,ServerMonkey

As far as I know (somebody can correct me if i'm wrong) The motherboard can have any operating system you want it to have. That is just a program you install on to your computer. If you really wanted to, you could install windows 98.

Yes, it is compatible. Also, you can check Microsoft's Windows Compatibility Center if you're looking for other models and wondering if they are compatible.

I was able to install Windows 7 without issues on this board. I agree with casselkid, I doubt is the board. I'm more inclined to think is a bad RAM. Try installing with only one memory stick, if fails, try another.

Yes - Windows 7 and 8, 32bit and 64bit. Just be sure to select the correct driver for you OS.

I bought this motherboard for my son last year along with 8GB of crucial memory in this link, seems pretty cheap and works great with Windows 7, no complains so far. Crucial Ballistix Sport 8GB Kit (4GBx2) DDR3 1600 (PC3-12800) 240-Pin UDIMM Memory BLS2KIT4G3D1609DS1S00/BLS2CP4G3D1609DS1S00

I am using it with a Windows 7 PC which has an AMD CPU and an Asus motherboard.

Yes, this board should be Windows XP compatible. You can find drivers for XP on the Asus support site.It may be time to consider an upgrade to move away from XP if your getting this board / new CPU? But it should work fine with XP.

Yes,Be sure the CPU is on the compatible list of processors...it must be a 65 watt processor. If you have 4gb or more in memory you'll want to install the 64-bit version of Win 7. If you have 3gb or less in memory, the 32-bit Win 7 will work fine...Look on Intel's support website and see if the motherboard has 64-bit drivers first, before buying the 64-bit version of Win7...if not you must use the 32-bit version of Win 7. Good Luck!!

The OS is stored on the hard drive. If you just change the mobo it should still boot right up without any problem. You may have to re validate your Windows installation. If it gives you a message to do this after a period of time it should take your product key. If it won't work then you will have to call Microsoft and they will likely help you with it. This has been a great Motherboard for me. Good luck.

I have this mobo. It definitely works with windows 7 and I used a gforce gtx 660. I'm not sure about the total usb, but there are a lot. Also has one usb 3.0 port on board if your case supports that. It has 2 sata 6.0 gbps ports and 4 3.0 gbps ports.

Yes it does. I run my Windows 8.1 pro 64- bit os on this motherboard and it runs great.

It is compatible with Windows 7. The original gx270 motherboard has an AGP 3.0 slot, so it should work just fine. I installed 32 bit Windows 7 on an old whiteboard PC we had and it worked fine with Windows 7.

This board is compatible with both 32 and 64... But I wouldnt even bother using 32 due to the RAM issues with going above 4gb. If you plan on installing more than 4gb go 64 bit OS
