pappyN4 got a reaction from SunLion in XP/W2k3 x64 on Modern Hardware
XP64 SP2 + post SP2 update pack
Gigabyte B450 Aorus M
F52 BIOS AGESA 1.0.0.6 (original F41 AGESA 1.0.0.3 also worked), (booted to XP64 on a different PC with F62d, so maybe Zen3 as well?)
Ryzen Zen2 Matisse CPU
Issues
Restart does not work with XP/XP64 with any of the acpis when using a PS2 keyboard. Have to manually push the restart button. Shutdown works fine. Workaround, use USB keyboard after it is installed (or integrate backported USB3 driver)

So I noticed that by default virtualization (AMD-V) aka "SVM" was disabled by default.
BIOS > MIT > Advanced Freq Settings > Advanced CPU Settings > SVM Mode Enabled & CoolNQuiet Enabled
BIOS > MIT > XMP Profile 1
BIOS > BIOS > CSM Support Enabled & Fastboot Disabled & Full Logo Disabled
You can also enable a PPT limit on the CPU lower than default. Lose a little bit of performance for a nice drop in heat.

ACPI
ACPI needed for new motherboards. First versions were based on longhorn 5048 with some BSODs patched. There was a x86 version based on the original XP acpi with new instructions patched in assembly as well (6666). Latest version for XP/XP64 (7777) is here,

VMware and USB flash drive passthrough
When using VMware, if you connect a USB flash drive and try to pass it through to the guest OS, you will need to use a USB port that is using the generic backported USB driver in the host OS. It does not work then using the AMD USB31_PT 1.0.5.3 chipset drivers from the motherboard. From the article it looks like other motherboard specific drivers will have the same issue with a few exceptions. Once you get the Win8 USB3 up and running, you can replace the AMD motherboard USB drivers.
https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2041591
Tested with: XP64host with VM10.0.7(last XP version) and Win7x64host with VM10.0.7 & 15.5.6(last Win7 version).
Testing passthrough with a Kingston USB2.0 flash drive works fine. But when connecting a Kingston USB3.0 flash drive vmware gets a "unable to connect to ideal host", and the drive does not load properly in the WinXP guest OS.
VMware and USB3.0 flash drive
If you change the USB compatibility in vmware in Settings from 2.0 to 3.0, then install the backported generic drivers to the XP guest OS, it will work properly.
Note that the vm image hardware compatibility mode has to be 8 or higher, if you are using an image set to 6.5-7.x mode or lower then the USB 3.0 drop down menu will not show up.

Extra Stuff
VMware and USB flash drive passthrough
When using VMware, if you connect a USB flash drive and try to pass it through to the guest OS, you will need to use a USB port that is using the generic backported USB driver in the host OS. It does not work then using the AMD USB31_PT 1.0.5.3 chipset drivers from the motherboard. From the article it looks like other motherboard specific drivers will have the same issue with a few exceptions. Once you get the Win8 USB3 up and running, you can replace the AMD motherboard USB drivers.
https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2041591
Tested with: XP64host with VM10.0.7(last XP version) and Win7x64host with VM10.0.7 & 15.5.6(last Win7 version).
Testing passthrough with a Kingston USB2.0 flash drive works fine. But when connecting a Kingston USB3.0 flash drive vmware gets a "unable to connect to ideal host", and the drive does not load properly in the WinXP guest OS.
VMware and USB3.0 flash drive
If you change the USB compatibility in vmware in Settings from 2.0 to 3.0, then install the backported generic drivers to the XP guest OS, it will work properly.
Note that the vm image hardware compatibility mode has to be 8 or higher, if you are using an image set to 6.5-7.x mode or lower then the USB 3.0 drop down menu will not show up.

"Installed INF does not contain digital signature" warning
I got this warning after integrating the USB3 drivers. You will need to patch syssetup.dll file to get rid of it. Original patch is from @ Mattiwatti. I updated the x64 patch to match the one found in the 2019 updates.

USB Attached SCSI (UASP)
When using the AMD USB drivers for the motherboard with a UASP capable device it defaults to using the default USB Mass Storage Device (usbstor), same as a standard USB stick.
With the backported Win8 drivers it's different. If you do not have a UASP driver installed (USB\Class_08&SubClass_06&Prot_62) then it will not find a driver by default. You can force install by manually selecting Universal Serial Bus Controllers - USB Mass Storage Device, or install a uasp driver.
Note that some motherboards may have a deadlock issue when using the uasp driver during reboots with the USB adapter still connected. If you select Safe Remove, reboot works fine, otherwise it doesn't finish the reboot. You will need to use a deadlock patched version of the driver if thats the case.
The following test is with a JMicron USB to PCIE adapter, VID152D PID0583 and a XG5 256GB NVMe. The Gen2 port on the B450 chipset and the Gen1 port on the B450 and on the Ryzen2. Drivers are the default XP usbstor 5.2.3790.5829, VIA uasp 6.1.7600.4002, and win8 uaspstor 6.2.9200.16384.

Samsung NVMe and SMART with CrystalDiskInfo
The samsung nvme driver is able to display SMART data in XP/Win7. To get CrystalDiskInfo to work instead of crashing when you start it in XP/XP64 you will have stop it from using WMI. Open DiskInfo32 or DiskInfo64 with a hex editor, find where "\ \ . \ r o o t \ c i m v 2" is and change it to something like "\ \ . \ r o o t \ n o w m i". Tested on version 8.15.2
630069006D00760032 -> 6E006F0077006D0069
Samsung NVMe potential issues
When I installed the latest nvidia 368.81 driver it caused the Samsung 3.3.0.2003 to stop working on XP64. @Andalu tested the same drivers on an Intel B250/GT730 and worked fine. After playing around with it, installing nvidia 355.98 appears to work/coexist with the Samsung NVMe driver on XP64. I've only tested on a GT710 so far but hopefully same result for my GTX750. Something to keep in mind if you have a amd/B450/gigabyte combo. On XP32 the Samsung driver did not work (code10), using the default non patched, or with the PAE patch /4GB. It did however work when PAE patched using /128GB or /all. Both with 355.98 and 368.81
Trim tests
O&O Defrag 17.5 is the best from all the ones I tested. Works on SATA and NVMe SSDs. AMD/Samsung/nativeWin7 drivers were all able to TRIM. Can be run from CMD line so you can schedule it if you want.
NVMe Trim
ADataSSDToolbox doesnt see (Win7/samsung/SchtromOFA13 driver)
TxBENCH see but no trim (Win7/samsung/SchtromOFA13 driver)
SSDTool 0.95 see but trim didnt work (../../samsung)
Naraeon5.4.0 win7 no see, SchtromOFA13 trim didnt work, samsung TRIM WORKS
O&O Defrag 17.5 win7 TRIM WORKS, SchtromOFA13 see but no trim, samsung TRIM WORKS
SSD Trim
Naraeon5.4.0 AMD yes, Win7msahci yes, SchromAHCI no see, Win8ahci no see
O&O Defrag 17.5 AMD yes, Win7msahci yes, SchromAHCI no trim, Win8ahci no trim
used trimcheck0.7 to see if it worked (https://github.com/CyberShadow/trimcheck)
*trimcheck x64 works also if Major/Minor changed from 6,0
*Naraeon has a "not a valid date and time error", doesnt affect functionality
*O&O can be run from CMD line, needed to change Major/Minor from 6,0 down to 5,2 (or 5,1) to install
Nvidia GPU driver & custom resolution
Based on a few posts i found, Nvidia 355.98 is that last version where you can add custom resolution if for example you have a ultrawide screen or 4k monitor that you want to use. It looks like XP is limited to displayport HBR1 (8.64 Gbit/s). There is a bit of other stuff as well but roughly, horizontal pixels × vertical pixels × (3 × bits per color channel) × refresh rate in Hertz = Bits per second. Calculator https://tomverbeure.github.io/video_timings_calculator
Ex:
2560 × 1600 × (3 × 😎 × 75 = 5898240000 bits/s / 1024³ = 6.86 Gbit/s
3840 x 2160 x (3 x 😎 x 40 = 7962624000 bits/s / 1024³ = 7.41 Gbit/s

Ok, now for something new. Sadly doesnt seem to be much interest for x64 ACPIs. I started using it back in 2005, so I broke away from 16bit applications long time ago. I didnt actually use XP, I went from 2000 to XP64. Anyways...
I'll start by saying I have no idea about patching ACPIs. I have no idea what each specific patch was made for. I dont know how to debug errors from ACPI. In the words of Mov AX, 0xDEAD, blindly turning off checks is not always the best idea. All I've done was compare the latest x86 5048 acpi (which worked on my ryzen), and tried to match existing patches and missing patches based on any calls or values by patterns and general structure/flow in IDA Free on the x64 5048. Some I feel confident I found the right one, others are reasonable, and one that is a total guess as it had nothing guess from. Feel free to open IDA and see for yourself.
5048 x86 "2020.10.24 - daniel_k, diderius6", all patches below are based on compare to original unpatched / patched file =Matched in x64 @27a80 00 00 00 -> A8 97 03 @27c58 28 92 03 -> 00 00 00 =Matched in x64 @d443 75 -> EB =MaybeMatch in x64 @15f15 8B F7 -> 89 FF -ex1 to x64 @283d6 7D -> EB -ex2 to x64 @d2b0 74 -> EB -exClose1 to x64 @f7e1 74 -> EB -exClose2 to x64 @4511 0F 84 39 01 00 00 -> E9 3A 01 00 00 90 -experiNotSure1 to x64 @317ac 75 -> EB @317c5 21 -> 00

experi1
in subroutine that has \\_S1,2,3,4,5 in the beginning
shorty before the end, block just after a ZwPowerInformation and 2 ExFreePoolWithTag, x86 stop jump to 2001, 0A5, call: extern KeBugCheckEx:Dword
so we do same, stop jump to __stdcall __noreturn extern KeBugCheckEx:qword
===========
experi2
in function shortly after x64@18ca4,x86@d443 with 58080206h,4449485Fh push/mov, PNP0C0F is jumped so that it doesnt get to a 5349445Fh, which then goes to 10006h,0A5h ds:keBugCheckEx
x64 version has a lot more paths to 0A5h, but same one jump to get away, good idea? I dont know.
Another learning experience. This one I used the same E9 jump as from expericlose2, but this time I just tried with my own guess for the offset. I ended up with a bit longer jump then I wanted so I guess my math wasnt exactly correct, but was able to get it there eventually.
===========
experiClose1
similar structure, compares 0FFFFFFFFh has 2 KeBugCheckEx, and ends with ExFreePoolWithTag
first KeBugCheckEx is left alone, goes straight from head to bugcheck, other one near end is the one that is jumped out
===========
experiClose2
similar structure, 4449555Fh,0Dh,0A5h to KeBugCheckEx at end, mentions 800h vs 80000000000h and 0A000h vs 0A00000000000h between x86 and x64
on x86 jumped to "retn" block,
This one was a learning experience. Using the same E9 3A 01 landed in the wrong spot. Makes sense after looking up E9 (JMP) is based on offset distance entered. On the x64 where you want to go wasnt in the same spot. So used IDA free in text mode to see where the text jump landed with the wrong value from x86, in hex calculated the difference on how much further was needed, then added it to the JMP. So 31 01 (aka in hex calculator 0131 + 6F = 01A9), so A9 01.
===========
experiNotSure1
not much to guess with, short subroutine, 2 KeBugCheckEx to avoid, total guess on this one

Patches
shell32 missing icon notification patch (x86/x64)
tcpip & tcpip6 max connection limit patch (x86/x64)
WinXPPAE v3.5 patch not needed, XP64 is good up to 128GB of ram.
AVX/AVX2 patch (only x86 version exists)
GPT native support on data volume. With XP32 you have to copy disk.sys and partmgr.sys from server2003x86, but with XP64 its based on 5.2 (like 2003x64).
sndrec32 2GB patch (only needed for x86, x64 does not need patch)
Patch for applications
4GB patcher to add /LARGEADDRESSAWARE flag for EXEs. Otherwise 32bit process is limited to 2GB. This would allow it to use all 4GB. Useful for some games or apps that can use a lot of RAM.

Extra Stuff
VMware and USB flash drive passthrough
When using VMware, if you connect a USB flash drive and try to pass it through to the guest OS, you will need to use a USB port that is using the generic backported USB driver in the host OS. It does not work then using the AMD USB31_PT 1.0.5.3 chipset drivers from the motherboard. From the article it looks like other motherboard specific drivers will have the same issue with a few exceptions. Once you get the Win8 USB3 up and running, you can replace the AMD motherboard USB drivers.
https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2041591
Tested with: XP64host with VM10.0.7(last XP version) and Win7x64host with VM10.0.7 & 15.5.6(last Win7 version).
Testing passthrough with a Kingston USB2.0 flash drive works fine. But when connecting a Kingston USB3.0 flash drive vmware gets a "unable to connect to ideal host", and the drive does not load properly in the WinXP guest OS.
VMware and USB3.0 flash drive
If you change the USB compatibility in vmware in Settings from 2.0 to 3.0, then install the backported generic drivers to the XP guest OS, it will work properly.
Note that the vm image hardware compatibility mode has to be 8 or higher, if you are using an image set to 6.5-7.x mode or lower then the USB 3.0 drop down menu will not show up.

"Installed INF does not contain digital signature" warning

Samsung NVMe and SMART with CrystalDiskInfo
The samsung nvme driver is able to display SMART data in XP/Win7. To get CrystalDiskInfo to work instead of crashing when you start it in XP/XP64 you will have stop it from using WMI. Open DiskInfo32 or DiskInfo64 with a hex editor, find where "\ \ . \ r o o t \ c i m v 2" is and change it to something like "\ \ . \ r o o t \ n o w m i". Tested on version 8.15.2
630069006D00760032 -> 6E006F0077006D0069
Samsung NVMe potential issues
When I installed the latest nvidia 368.81 driver it caused the Samsung 3.3.0.2003 to stop working on XP64. @Andalu tested the same drivers on an Intel B250/GT730 and worked fine. After playing around with it, installing nvidia 355.98 appears to work/coexist with the Samsung NVMe driver on XP64. I've only tested on a GT710 so far but hopefully same result for my GTX750. Something to keep in mind if you have a amd/B450/gigabyte combo. On XP32 the Samsung driver did not work (code10), using the default non patched, or with the PAE patch /4GB. It did however work when PAE patched using /128GB or /all. Both with 355.98 and 368.81
Trim tests
O&O Defrag 17.5 is the best from all the ones I tested. Works on SATA and NVMe SSDs. AMD/Samsung/nativeWin7 drivers were all able to TRIM. Can be run from CMD line so you can schedule it if you want.
NVMe Trim
ADataSSDToolbox doesnt see (Win7/samsung/SchtromOFA13 driver)
TxBENCH see but no trim (Win7/samsung/SchtromOFA13 driver)
SSDTool 0.95 see but trim didnt work (../../samsung)
Naraeon5.4.0 win7 no see, SchtromOFA13 trim didnt work, samsung TRIM WORKS
O&O Defrag 17.5 win7 TRIM WORKS, SchtromOFA13 see but no trim, samsung TRIM WORKS
SSD Trim
Naraeon5.4.0 AMD yes, Win7msahci yes, SchromAHCI no see, Win8ahci no see
O&O Defrag 17.5 AMD yes, Win7msahci yes, SchromAHCI no trim, Win8ahci no trim
used trimcheck0.7 to see if it worked (https://github.com/CyberShadow/trimcheck)
*trimcheck x64 works also if Major/Minor changed from 6,0
*Naraeon has a "not a valid date and time error", doesnt affect functionality
*O&O can be run from CMD line, needed to change Major/Minor from 6,0 down to 5,2 (or 5,1) to install
Nvidia GPU driver & custom resolution
Based on a few posts i found, Nvidia 355.98 is that last version where you can add custom resolution if for example you have a ultrawide screen or 4k monitor that you want to use. It looks like XP is limited to displayport HBR1 (8.64 Gbit/s). There is a bit of other stuff as well but roughly, horizontal pixels × vertical pixels × (3 × bits per color channel) × refresh rate in Hertz = Bits per second. Calculator https://tomverbeure.github.io/video_timings_calculator
Ex:
2560 × 1600 × (3 × 😎 × 75 = 5898240000 bits/s / 1024³ = 6.86 Gbit/s
3840 x 2160 x (3 x 😎 x 40 = 7962624000 bits/s / 1024³ = 7.41 Gbit/s

USB Attached SCSI (UASP)
When using the AMD USB drivers for the motherboard with a UASP capable device it defaults to using the default USB Mass Storage Device (usbstor), same as a standard USB stick.
With the backported Win8 drivers it's different. If you do not have a UASP driver installed (USB\Class_08&SubClass_06&Prot_62) then it will not find a driver by default. You can force install by manually selecting Universal Serial Bus Controllers - USB Mass Storage Device, or install a uasp driver.
Note that some motherboards may have a deadlock issue when using the uasp driver during reboots with the USB adapter still connected. If you select Safe Remove, reboot works fine, otherwise it doesn't finish the reboot. You will need to use a deadlock patched version of the driver if thats the case.
The following test is with a JMicron USB to PCIE adapter, VID152D PID0583 and a XG5 256GB NVMe. The Gen2 port on the B450 chipset and the Gen1 port on the B450 and on the Ryzen2. Drivers are the default XP usbstor 5.2.3790.5829, VIA uasp 6.1.7600.4002, and win8 uaspstor 6.2.9200.16384.

https://itm4n.github.io/windows-dll-hijacking-clarified/
This explains better but Dependency Walker only checks if DLL is the import table. At runime a program can use LoadLibrary() to call other dlls. I looked through all the DLL from DepWalker that Crystal uses, but didnt see one that was "wbem" or "wmi" sounding...
I tried replacing the 4 WMI related DLLs that Crystal needs into the windows sys folder. Dependency wise there was no issues, but Crystal still crashed.
In IDA, there is a "Suspended on Library load/unload". Running it, it looks like ntdll.dll is where wbmprox first loads, but a bunch of other DLLs load in that same spot is how it looked to me in IDA. No idea how to look up where it was in ntdll.dll itself...
Sumbled upon a "debug" setting that can be turned on in Crystal's ini. In there, the last entry before failure was "CMD_TYPE_NVME_INTEL". Opening up DiskInfo.exe, subroutine was findable with that name. A lot of IdentifyDevice, AddDevice calls, most ending up at a block with many inputs (all the Info/Add Devices Intel/Samsung/etc...) just before sub exits. Adding a breakpoint, it looks like Crystal gets through the NVME_INTEL block, and errors out at the MultiBlock.. Jumped out @4cf96 74 -> EB to skip "AddDiskNVMe - CMD_TYPE_NVME_INTEL". CDI starts at least, but nvme does not show up. Then tried skiping "DoIdentifyDeviceNVMeIntel" which calls ""AddDiskNVMe - CMD_TYPE_NVME_INTEL" @4ced8 74 77 -> 90 90 @4cf4b 0F 85 0A 01 00 00 -> E9 0B 01 00 00 90. Same things starts, but no nvme.
00001110 DoIdentifyDeviceNVMeStorageQuery 00001110 DoIdentifyDeviceNVMeIntelRst 00001110 DoIdentifyDeviceNVMeSamsung 00001110 DoIdentifyDeviceNVMeIntel 00001110 AddDiskNVMe - CMD_TYPE_NVME_INTEL
Looked further up the logfile. Compared one with wbemprox removed to a normal one.
no wbem / works
00000000 dlg.DoModal() 00000015 InitAta 00000015 CAtaSmart::Init WMI on - Start 00000015 CoInitializeSecurity() 00000031 CoCreateInstance() 00000031 NG:WMI Init 1 wbem / fails
00000016 dlg.DoModal() 00000032 InitAta 00000032 CAtaSmart::Init WMI on - Start 00000032 CoInitializeSecurity() 00000032 CoCreateInstance() 00000032 ConnectServer() 00000032 CoSetProxyBlanket() 00000047 OK:WMI Init 00000782 OK:Win32_IDEController 00000813 OK:Win32_SCSIController Searched around on on those keywords. ConnectServer() to a wmi server maybe? Ended up in two subroutines that sounded interesting. Saw "\\.\root\cimv2" which was familiar...
Borrowed a quick vbscript to try wmi. Breaking the path stops it from working.
strComputer = "." Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\.\root\CIMV2") Set colItems = objWMIService.ExecQuery("SELECT * FROM Win32_Process" & _ " WHERE Name = 'cscript.exe'" & " OR Name = 'wscript.exe'",,48) For Each objItem in colItems Wscript.Echo "-------------------------------------------" Wscript.Echo "CommandLine: " & objItem.CommandLine Wscript.Echo "Name: " & objItem.Name Next
So in DiskInfo32 or DiskInfo64, find where "\ \ . \ r o o t \ c i m v 2" is with hex editor and change it to something like "\ \ . \ r o o t \ n o w m i". 630069006D00760032 -> 6E006F0077006D0069
Then let DiskInfo handle the error of a missing wmi the same way as if wbemprox file was missing.

Crystal Disk Info modded to stop WMI from loading.
https://ufile.io/16asy5na
I tried both 32 and 64bit version on my XP64. Both worked with my samsung nvme (didnt load NVMe size like for SSD/HDD but that info should be in the model names anyway).
Now for the real question. Has anyone tried to use the samsung NVMe driver with a not samsung nvme? I only have the one so I cant test but I would be interested to see if the driver would work and pass through SMART for other manufactures.
I tested the generic driver inf for samsung originally posted by Fernando and it worked for my samsung. Here's the same one for x86. (I leave it to you guys to mod the secnvme for x86).

Ok, now for something new. Sadly doesnt seem to be much interest for x64 ACPIs. I started using it back in 2005, so I broke away from 16bit applications long time ago. I didnt actually use XP, I went from 2000 to XP64. Anyways...
I'll start by saying I have no idea about patching ACPIs. I have no idea what each specific patch was made for. I dont know how to debug errors from ACPI. In the words of Mov AX, 0xDEAD, blindly turning off checks is not always the best idea. All I've done was compare the latest x86 5048 acpi (which worked on my ryzen), and tried to match existing patches and missing patches based on any calls or values by patterns and general structure/flow in IDA Free on the x64 5048. Some I feel confident I found the right one, others are reasonable, and one that is a total guess as it had nothing guess from. Feel free to open IDA and see for yourself.

experi1
in subroutine that has \\_S1,2,3,4,5 in the beginning
shorty before the end, block just after a ZwPowerInformation and 2 ExFreePoolWithTag, x86 stop jump to 2001, 0A5, call: extern KeBugCheckEx:Dword
so we do same, stop jump to __stdcall __noreturn extern KeBugCheckEx:qword
===========
experi2
in function shortly after x64@18ca4,x86@d443 with 58080206h,4449485Fh push/mov, PNP0C0F is jumped so that it doesnt get to a 5349445Fh, which then goes to 10006h,0A5h ds:keBugCheckEx
x64 version has a lot more paths to 0A5h, but same one jump to get away, good idea? I dont know.
Another learning experience. This one I used the same E9 jump as from expericlose2, but this time I just tried with my own guess for the offset. I ended up with a bit longer jump then I wanted so I guess my math wasnt exactly correct, but was able to get it there eventually.
===========
experiClose1
similar structure, compares 0FFFFFFFFh has 2 KeBugCheckEx, and ends with ExFreePoolWithTag
first KeBugCheckEx is left alone, goes straight from head to bugcheck, other one near end is the one that is jumped out
===========
experiClose2
similar structure, 4449555Fh,0Dh,0A5h to KeBugCheckEx at end, mentions 800h vs 80000000000h and 0A000h vs 0A00000000000h between x86 and x64
on x86 jumped to "retn" block,
This one was a learning experience. Using the same E9 3A 01 landed in the wrong spot. Makes sense after looking up E9 (JMP) is based on offset distance entered. On the x64 where you want to go wasnt in the same spot. So used IDA free in text mode to see where the text jump landed with the wrong value from x86, in hex calculated the difference on how much further was needed, then added it to the JMP. So 31 01 (aka in hex calculator 0131 + 6F = 01A9), so A9 01.
===========
experiNotSure1
not much to guess with, short subroutine, 2 KeBugCheckEx to avoid, total guess on this one

THe USB driver needs Kernel Mode Driver Framework 1.11 (WDF 1.11).
-Follow the instructions from above and create updated wdf files.
Useful Tools:
-Hexplorer or equivalent hex editor
-Dependency Walker
-PEChecksum.exe
DEV7901/43C8 FCH/400 Series SATA Controller Option3: AMD 1.2.1.402
-Download the Windows 7 chipset pack for the B450 from AMD.
-Open up amd_sata.inf and change the two lines that have NTAMD64.6.1 -> NTAMD64 (NTx86 if doing the 32bit version)
-Add in these lines underneath existing DEVs if not already there (non B450 board may have different DEV_):
%AMDSATA.DeviceDesc% = amd_sata_inst, PCI\VEN_1022&DEV_7901&CC_0106
%AMDSATA.DeviceDesc% = amd_sata_inst, PCI\VEN_1022&DEV_7904&CC_0106
%AMDSATA.DeviceDesc% = amd_sata_inst, PCI\VEN_1022&DEV_43C8&CC_0106
-Open up amd_xata.sys with hexplorer or equivalent, find and change ntoskrnl.exe -> ntoskrn8.sys.
-Apply PEChecksum.exe on amd_xata.sys
DEV149C Matisse USB 3.0 Host Controller usbxhci 6.2.9200.xxxxx
Backported generic Win 8 USB3 driver from NTOSKRNL_Emu works. Needs WDF1.11 backport as well.
NVMe Generic Windows 7 NVMe Option2: stornvme 6.1.7601.23403
Backporting Windows 7 NVMe drive works. No SMART info.
NVME Samsung Option3: 3.3.0.2003
Backport the Samsung NVME driver. secnvme.sys and secnvme.sys imports need to be changed to NTOSKRN8.SYS like with the other drivers. No SMART with CrystalDiskInfo but it does work with HWiNFO.
I only have a Samsung NVME so havent tested if the generic works with other brands.
Chipset Drivers (null)
DEV790B FCH SMBus Controller
Null driver. Download an old 13.4 XP/XP64 chipset pack from AMD or get Windows 7 for the B450 chipset.
Open up SMBUSamd.inf and add in these two lines underneath existing DEVs:
%AMD.DeviceDesc0% = AMDSMBus, PCI\VEN_1022&DEV_790B
%AMD.DeviceDesc0% = AMDSMBus64, PCI\VEN_1022&DEV_790B
DEV1481 Starship/Matisse IOMMU
Null driver. Download an old 13.4 XP/XP64 chipset pack from AMD or get Windows 7 for the B450 chipset.
Open up AmdIOV.inf and add in this line underneath existing DEVs:
%IOMMU.DeviceDesc%=NULL_DRIVER,PCI\VEN_1022&DEV_1481
DEV1486 Starship/Matisse Cryptographic Coprocessor PSPCPP
Install null driver to remove from missing devices.
DEV1485/148A Starship/Matisse Reserved SPP/PCIe Dummy Function
According to the readme this should also be a null driver. Unlike the SMBus and IOMMU, this one has a sys file that tries to install.
Update inf to add DEV1485 and DEV148A.
ACPI\AMDI0030
Install null driver to remove from missing devices
Extra Stuff
VMware and USB flash drive passthrough
When using VMware, if you connect a USB flash drive and try to pass it through to the guest OS, you will need to use a USB port that is using the generic backported USB driver in the host OS. It does not work then using the AMD USB31_PT 1.0.5.3 chipset drivers from the motherboard. From the article it looks like other motherboard specific drivers will have the same issue with a few exceptions. Once you get the Win8 USB3 up and running, you can replace the AMD motherboard USB drivers.
https://kb.vmware.com/s/article/2041591
Tested with: XP64host with VM10.0.7(last XP version) and Win7x64host with VM10.0.7 & 15.5.6(last Win7 version).
Testing passthrough with a Kingston USB2.0 flash drive works fine. But when connecting a Kingston USB3.0 flash drive vmware gets a "unable to connect to ideal host", and the drive does not load properly in the WinXP guest OS.
VMware and USB3.0 flash drive
If you change the USB compatibility in vmware in Settings from 2.0 to 3.0, then install the backported generic drivers to the XP guest OS, it will work properly.
Note that the vm image hardware compatibility mode has to be 8 or higher, if you are using an image set to 6.5-7.x mode or lower then the USB 3.0 drop down menu will not show up.
