    Installing Windows 10 on an older 2009/2010 Asus P6X58D-E motherboard?


    My question is a carryover from this locked thread. Back in 2017 a user reported horrible performance with Windows 10 on this specific motherboard.


    I would like to run Office 365 but I recall several years ago when Microsoft was offering a free upgrade to Windows 10 from Windows 7 my PC ran super slow despite have more than the minimum required specs. There was considerable and noticeable lag switching between browser tabs and applications. Obviously, this wasn't a hard drive or HDD issue where some suggest buying an SSD to improve performance.


    At that time, I uninstalled Windows 10 and installed my backup image which contained Windows 7. I'm reconsidering upgrading one final time to Windows 10 hoping that Windows 10 has become more efficient and less resource heavy over the last 5-6 years and a fresh clean install might improve performance but I doubt that will be the case.


    Below is the original thread and Asus does in fact now provide drivers for Windows 10 so the motherboard barely supports Windows 10 but technically, it does.

    :)

    Installing Windows 10 on an older 2009/2010 Asus P6X58D-E motherboard?

    Is it possible to do clean Windows 10 install over an older 2009 iMac?

    The iMac is an early 2009 model that does support Bootcamp for Window 7 (8?). Early 2009 iMac's cannot upgrade to the latest Sierra OS X because of hardware so it occurred to me, why not upgrade the iMac to a fresh install of Windows 10. Can this be done?

    I believe the problem lies in the iMac's motherboard as Windows drivers are not installed (BIOS). Even if I install Bootcamp drivers to the MB directly, I still could not install Window 10 because 2009 iMac's will only go up to Windows 7 or 8 & I don't think Microsoft is supporting 7 anymore either so we'd be right back to where we are now.

    Anyway, is it possible to do clean Windows 10 install over an older 2009 iMac?
