Intel D975XBX and Win 7 64 bit

Post by JohnC58 »

Hi- First post here. Great info. Icouldn't find this and it's a current issue.
Anybody have experience running win 7 64 bit on a Intel D975XBX with a Q6700 Core 2 Duo. We'd like to upgrade the OpSys and trying to figure out if we need to upgrade the box first.
Thanks
John

I'm using W7 64 bit on my XBX2 with a Q6700. W7 works fine, didn't even have to install any chipset drivers.
