A clean install of Windows, ANY VERSION is getting too hard on folk. I didn't see any note about your work on finding drivers for motherboard, audio and video.
http://www.notebookcheck.net/Intel-HD-Graphics-530.148358.0.html is not a good sign. Too much red.
Also, COD may balk on Intel HD graphics. Let's see if folk are reporting that.

So yes. And while there appears to be some folk fixing it, I consider NSFM (not safe for most.)
I have installed Windows 10 64 bit (Direct X 12 included) in my PC and when I try to run COD 4, it gives an error message - "The application was unable to start correctly (0x000007b). Click OK to close the application.
I have searched in google, there are many tweaks I tried but no result.
I installed it on my Windows XP laptop and it ran but I wasn't able to play because my laptop is old with very old integrated graphics.
Anybody please help.
Spec - i5 6500, Intel HD 530, 8 GB DDR4.
