I'm damned certain that what Microsoft is doing is not certifying WHQL of any driver for anyone's new CPU's except under Windows 10. That they can get away with, with or without any other firm's cooperation. The only way possibly around that just might be flipping Windows over into Test Mode, something I've been doing for since WHQL drivers have been required as legacy has been something of a requirement here.
