I just bought a cheap HP Stream 11 laptop on sale for $120 because I needed a troubleshooting Windows PC, and I can disable TPM in the bios. It *can* be done easily in a bios update on your board too, asus just doesn't want to deal with it. I can understand this to some degree though, eventually everything has to move forward, and sometimes that direction is out of the hands of manufacturers, since it's usually dictated by Microsoft, Intel, and Nvidia. This is why I moved on from XP last year, it just got to be too hard to circumvent all the issues. Too many companies started forcibly making stuff obsolete in newer software/driver updates--not necessarily because they had to, but because they wanted to....I spoke to asus directly and this is what they told me...

windows 7 using a backported Windows 8.1 driver
anyone know where that topic with the back ported windows 8.1 driver for TPM was ? I'm still not able to find it, I wanna try messing with it just to rule that out.,,,,,
Update: sorry it's been so long. I was successful at getting windows 7 fully operational, using the testing image I was working with. I managed to find drivers for everything except the WIFI, the 10GB ethernet, (I'll be phoning the manufacturer to see if there is any way of getting it working) and the Thunderbolt drivers. (Both the WIFI and Thunderbolt are intel so there probably won't be much luck there unless I can find a hacked and/or backported driver somewhere) the 2.5 GB ethernet port works so it's good enough for now.
The NVidia videocard driver issues I reported earlier seems to have fixed itself with a BIOS update that wasn't available at the time of writing. The Bios Update also resolved the systems inability to reboot properly from any version of windows. (without manually pushing the power off button )
The windows 7 system presently works fully in UFEI (and yes it is worlds faster than windows10 on the same hardware.)
Happy Valentines day guys.
oh man, really want to get win7 working on this board.
Would you be kind enough to link to drivers you used please ?
read post #29 for further guidance, but as 7 is EOL , and no further support is available, you may have to bite the bullet and settle with 10
