 SUMMIT AND WINDOWS 7 ADVISORY
While Windows 7 is no longer supported by Microsoft, AMD continues to investigate solutions or
workaround where possible. The following are known limitations that are not considered gates to
production:

‒ USB3.0 Keyboard / Mouse cannot wake up

‒ Specific issue only occurs when port used is off the CPU. Functions on all ports off Promontory. No fix
planned.

‒ System software S3 hang failure, black screen failure

‒ Failure rate low during repeated S3 ACPI test cycling. Summit timestamp architecture limits ability for
workaround due to no MSFT Win7 updates incorporated. MSFT addressed in Windows 10. No fix or
workaround planned for Win7. Recommend if customer has high failure rate, disable S3 through SBIOS.

‒ Win7 system soft lock in reboot test

‒ Issue resolved in SMU version 58 and later and included in 1.0.1 stack.

‒ UAC popup message for “launchpopupexe” appears after system reboot

Works as designed. UAC popup is a Windows 7 Security Feature. The Popup informs the user that the
application is running with Administrator privileges. The OS controls this behavior. As long as the UAC is
from a known vendor, in this case, AMD, this is not an issue.

‒ Bristol Ridge hang at Post Code 0x5D with warm reset button
‒ BIOS workaround converts a warm reset to a cold reset. Details for BIOS workaround provided through
separate communications.

Information UNIFIED AM4 BOARD DESIGN

Detection
Design Change
 FALSE OVER CURRENT CONDITION TRIGGERED WHEN
ENABLING USB OC PORT MAPPING
 Observation
USB ports are disabled and non-functional after programming USB OC (Over Current) mapping in the
OVERCURRENT_MAP_0 register.

 Root Cause:

The USB_OCx_L ( USB Overcurrent pins) are Active HIGH instead of Active LOW. Since the onboard Over Current
circuit are designed to be Active Low , the default state will be Logic High when there is no Over Current condition.
This will cause a false over current condition to be triggered and reported to the OS. The OS/driver will then
disable the affected port(s) and inform user of the OC condition.

 Silicon Affected: All Summit Ridge ZP

 Solutions:
A. Onboard Over Current logic should be designed for Active High condition. If the motherboard is shared with
BR/ST designs then the OC circuit should be designed for both polarity selectable by CoreType1 pin (see next
slide for example).
B. Alternatively, if the hardware change cannot be accommodated, the Over Current reporting by
the XHCI controller can be disabled by not programming the mapping in OVERCURRENT_MAP_0
register. The onboard circuit should still protect the system from excessive current, but the
condition will not be reported to the OS and to the end user.
