Upgrade question

Postby AJMatthews on Sun Mar 29, 2020 6:17 am

Anyone know if you can install a dual boot Win10/Win7 on a B450 or X570 board to an NVMe drive?

Thanks,
AJ

After speaking with 2 different techs at MSI customer service it has pretty much been determined that installing Windows 7 on a B450 or X-570 board (I have the MSI B450 Tomahawk) with a Ryzen 5 3rd generation chip (I have Ryzen 5 3600x) is next to impossible. I was able to inject the USB 3 and the NVME drivers into the Windows 7 install media but no matter what I tried the install would not work. So, I gave up.

I have a new Asus X570 motherboard with the AMD 3900X CPU and its impossible to get Links 2003 to work from windows 7 through to windows 10, tried eveything and no go.

An update to this, I have managed to get Links 2003 to work in windows 10 running on an Asus Hero viii x570 MB and a AMD 3900x cpu, it was a fluke as I purchased links 2003 from the links country club quite a few years ago and downloaded my purchase a few days ago, installed to my Nvme rocket flash drive, then I copied my original links 2003 cd’s I purchased back in November 2002, yes still have the original boxed cd’s and installed 1.07 update and NVIDIA patch, input my Radeon rx 5700 xt to the video card file and it worked, not sure how it did, and I can change the resolution to 1920x1080 32 bit in game and up to 1920x1200 without going to the regedit.

P.S. for some reason for months I tried to get links 2003 up in running just using my boxed cd’s on the same system, maybe it’s files from the Links Country club download of links 2003 that got me up and running, not sure.

Have you followed these steps?

Having to re install Links
Simple, follow these steps in order.

1 install Links
2 install v1.02
3 install v1.05
4 install v 1.07
5 install links NVIDIA patch
6 install lspn crash fix
7 install LSPN_MAIN_L2K3
Procedure,
Place all the files in the links main folder (including RuKsHuk.exe).
To install the patches, just double click on them, it will be done automatically.
Good luck, see you on the tees.
Robert (aka Obelix)

NB: LSPN_MAIN will set the proper IP within Links to play ON-LINE
No matter where you go, there you are!
