Ok so I got windows 8 preinstalled on my new computer (Didnt know it was default windows OS now) but anyways, iv tried installing windows 7 through torrents and it keeps giving me errors on reboot after installation. 

NOTE: I do know this works because i have done it on my other computers. 

Any idea how i can get windows 7

I got windows 8 to.

 

If u bought the PC in the store with windows 8 on it. U CANNOT delete it. ( and CANNOT put windows 7 on it )

If you downloaded windows 8 via torrent. U can delete it.

Damn it, i saw something saying you can  change the UEFI settings the the BIOS to CMA and then the installation will work. Anyone here of this?

Keep w8, it's much better than w7, trust me, you'll get used to it, and like it.

get start8 for windows 8. it gives the start menu back. It's like windows 7 but faster.

you fucked.

Unless you take a hard drive that already has windows 7 and clone it.

I love the new Start menu, idk why people make such a big deal out of it.

You cannot easily downgrade as you can upgrade. Try searching on google how to downgrade Windows 8.

Windows vista ftw

You can downgrade to windows 7.

Windows vista ftw

 

No, just no....

 

Anyway,

• Burn W7 to a disc
• Put it in your PC
• Boot from CD
• Fresh install
• Wait for it to restart
• Put in details.

Btw try a pre-activated W7 and make sure you get the right version (x64 or x86) depending on what RAM you have. 4GB+ should be x64 4GB or less should be x86 (32bit)
