New silicon generations will only be supported on the latest version of Windows, Microsoft has warned. In a blog post (http://tinyurl.com/zhdwcer), EVP Terry Myers wrote that it is difficult to ensure stability for older versions, such as Windows 7, while also updating them to support features enabled in new hardware.

Microsoft has said that it will release a list soon of specific Skylake devices that will run Windows 7/8.1.
