Purchased this motherboard for a windows 7 Compaq Presario . It installed just fine . I had to re - pin the front panel plug since the old motherboard had a different front panel socket . This is typical due to proprietary connectors in different manufacturers but USB connectors should install . Wire length may be an issue due to board placement sockets . Other than that , it was a straight motherboard replacement . Install your processor and memory cards . The rest is plug and play . Bios will reconfigure settings .

I purchased this motherboard as a spare, and it is presently unused. This model performs well with WinXP and Win7, and I like it for that. This model will handle an upgrade to Win10, but does not like the latest Win10 feature update one bit. Gigabyte have not commented about its Win10 capability, and I understand why.

Good solid motherboard for AMD processors, stable, powerful , planty of ports included (especially parallel port - why new motherboards do not have LPT ports anymore ???) , firewire, front & back USB ports, front audio port .. etc) cons: -only 2 ram slots (four slots would have been nice!) -front audio connecter is all the way in the rear, it should have been closer to the front panel -also, floppy drive connector is on the side of the board instead of being closer to the front next to the IDE connector like most of the other boards on this planet! other than that, it's an OK stable board ..

The thing is a piece of crap, can't really handle the requirements of a decent system it was rated for - the northbridge overheats like crazy if the processor keeps the bus saturated. Same power conditioning circuit that has burnt out two other GA-M68 boards trying to run a Phenom II X6
