After many u-turns on whether amd would support win 7/8, Microsoft sealed the deal by stating that it would not allow updates for win 7/8 with Ryzen installed.

Win 7 install ... -> Bootalbe USB stick with win 7 ( with SP1 ) and the Asus Driver DVD in the DVD Drive ... the USB Driver will be automatically loadet from the DVD , one problem .. install to a NVMe SSD will not work ... but to a Sata SSD .. Install the hotfix an the driver for the NVMe ,an use a migrations tool to copy to the NVMe SSD ...

You need Windows 10 to get updates now with a Ryzen cpu. Dumb Microsoft move that will probably be changed in a month or two.

I do not want to prescribe what operating system I use, if what I currently have to exchange for what is worse.

Once you run a few Windows Updates there is the Unsupported Hardware popup which blocks any new updates. There is an opensource you can download that shuts that up and allows you to get updates again.
