I alot of help installing windows xp pro 64 bit on the MSI X99s Gaming 7 motherboard.

I really do not wish to buy windows 7 or 8 or 10 later on and waste hundred dollars just for another os. Thats why i want to use XP since i own the official retail disc.
Now the problem is that on this motherboard i want someone to find me the SATA/ACHI drivers for my chipset and give me the correct link for it iether on intels website or another trusted legit website.
I do not wish to use megaupload etc... because they virus. i do not want to DL an os because there is chance i virus. Please DO NOT EVEN tell me of the OS torrents. I like genuine stuff.

I want xp to address 32gb of my ddr4 ram.

I need to use the F6 floppy install option but in when i load the drivers and before i get to the file system selection screen i get the " BLUE SCREEEN OF DEATH" and it says please shut down your computer to prevent serious damage and it tells me there is a fatel error.

I really wish to acomplish this goal of installing windows xp 64 bit on my new gaming motherboard and i know how hard it is. The problem is that you will always say stuff about windows 7 is better bla bla but i do NOT like windows 7 as xp uses less resources.

so please can someone help me to install xp without using floppy drive and by simple use nlite and slipstream drivers to the windows OS

That would be an utter waste of money anyhow, a 15 year old OS on brand new equipment. lol. XP is antiquated. You cant even game on XP much anymore due to games needing more than DX9. And as the person above me said, they dont even have drivers for XP for the X99 platform. Buying a modern OS is not a waste of money, it allows you to use all the new tech that cant be accessed by on old OS. You are wasting hundreds of dollars of brand new tech on an OS that cant take advantage of it. smh.
