Unable to boot windows 7 on NON UEFI American Megatrends Inc. BIOS
Closed this issue · 11 comments
Hello.
I have an actual problem.
I'm right now in Arch Linux (btw) and in a NON UEFI BIOS system.
before using Limine I used Grub to dualboot Windows 7 and Arch.
I searched multiple solutions but none of them work.
Someone help me.
Arch User.
=(
That link is the .sys and the .conf file
You have provided zero details, nobody will be able to help you.
@kovmir what specifications do you need?
A drive can be initialized as MBR or GPT. Windows 7 can be installed as Legacy on a MBR drive or as UEFI on a GPT drive.
@afifafifafifafifali Yes, but I can only use MBR because I have Legacy BIOS as I said before, not UEFI.
In order to boot Windows with legacy BIOS you can use the bios_chainload protocol as described in the CONFIG.md file and chainload the VBR (aka the partition) containing the Windows bootloader.
@FER-HUM-LAB-INV I know. Can you upgrade the BIOS. e.g. SeaBIOS or OVMF which supports UEFI?
@afifafifafifafifali Sorry, but I can't.
I can provide you my motherboard.
ASUS M4A78LT-M
