Solve : uninstall Win 8 then install Win 7? |
|
Answer» Hi GUYS! My friend bought a brand new Samsung Series 3 370r laptop with a pre-installed Windows 8 64-bit Single Language. 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. Actually, that's our PROBLEM. We cannot boot any Win 7 DVD. By the way, we are using a portable DVD drive (via USB) Settings > Change PC Settings > General > Advanced Start Up Troubleshoot > Advanced Options > UEFI Firmware Settings > disabled "Secure Boot" What is WRONG with the ONBOARD DVD player ? ? If you are doing it from an external you need to enable boot to USB in the BIOS...Quote from: geek hoodlum on September 09, 2013, 09:16:00 PM Hi guys! My friend bought a brand new Samsung Series 3 370r laptop with a pre-installed Windows 8 64-bit Single Language.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 What is wrong with the onboard DVD player ? ?The laptop has no on-board DVD player. Quote If you are doing it from an external you need to enable boot to USB in the BIOS...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... Many new laptops....especially since Vista are tied to the OS that was pre-installed...this is a budget maneuver and mostly by design. It's 1 reason they can sell them so cheaply.... |
