Remove Windows 8 and Install Windows 7
If you are not able to boot from a media to install windows 7 on the hardware you purchased with Windows 8, here is a simple way.
You should arrange Windows 7 driver for your hardware before going for it, else you will be stuck with a nearly useless machine after Windows 7.
Both steps to be performed in Bios.
Step 1:
Disable Secure Boot
Step 2:
Enable Legacy Boot.
Now you will be able to select your USB or DVD etc to boot from.
How to do it in bios is different with every manufacturer. So I can't mention steps here, however you should yourself search in Bios Settings.
Some of the names of Bios Settings may appear as:
- Bios
- Setup
- System Configuration
- Settings
This will be at the time of boot and require pressing Key like F9 or F10 etc. to enter to the settings.
Worked for me.
Best of Luck.
