Answer» <html><body><p>Hi <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/guys-1014120" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about GUYS">GUYS</a>! My friend bought a brand new Samsung Series 3 370r laptop with a pre-installed Windows 8 64-bit Single Language.<br/><br/>Is there a way to downgrade or reformat the current Win 8 to Win 7 using a Win 7 bootable DVD? How?<br/><br/>Or need to slave the Hard Drive to another PC to reformat first?<br/><br/>Links for similar thread will be much appreciated. Thanks in advance!Win 7 first, then Win 8.<br/>The recommended method is to install the <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/early-447577" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about EARLY">EARLY</a> version first. Shrink the partition, or divide it. Then install the newer version.Geek 9pm please re-read the question...<br/><br/>GH i would see if the laptop has all neccessary Win7 drivers 1st of all.<br/>Boot to the W7 DVD. Choose the option to delete the partition - then recreate the partition, format, install. Then install all W7 drivers (starting with the chipset driver). Needless to say, you'll lose all data so be sure to save anything you need first.Quote from: Allan on September 10, 2013, 05:48:21 AM</p><blockquote>Boot to the W7 DVD.

How?<br/></blockquote>I'm wondering how long your friend tried using Windows 8 before jumping to this conclusion? And, why does he/she want to downgrade?Quote<blockquote>What is wrong with the onboard DVD player ? ?</blockquote>The laptop has no on-board DVD player.<br/><br/>Quote<blockquote>If you are doing it from an external you need to enable boot to USB in the BIOS...</blockquote>We are having a hard time in BIOS. In the boot options, we cannot find USB.Then it doesn't have it...and you may be out of luck...<br/><br/>Many new laptops....especially since Vista are tied to the OS that was pre-installed...this is a budget maneuver and mostly by design.<br/>It's 1 reason they can sell them so cheaply....</body></html> | |
