You will need to perform a clean install of Windows 7.

I would recommend downloading the drivers for your OS to a USB drive.
Install your new components.
If your motherboard does not have BIOS version F20 or later, you will need a natively supported processor (see the CPU Support List), temporarily, to update the BIOS before you can install and use the Kaby Lake processor.
Once the BIOS is updated (if necessary), then you can install the new processor.
Once the new processor is installed, you can then start the Windows 7 installation.
Once Windows is installed, you can then install the previously downloaded drivers.
