Hello!
I am extremely confused about this whole Skylake and Windows 7 business
Now apparently Windows 7 has no support for the xHCI driver in Skylake so it has no USB support
Now the thing is that, shouldn't the USB 2.0 ports still have the EHCI? So that I can at least use a mouse and keyboard to upgrade to Windows 10? Or am I completely wrong and there is no hope for me? Because who wants to go waste 100 dollars on a brand new key when you have a perfectly good Windows 7 one lying around?
Can someone shine a light on my situation?
(BTW my Asus motherboard that I will be using has a USB 3.1 driver, so will that work?)
