• How downgrade from Windows 8 for Windows 7 on a Dell computer?

  Original title: dell xps cannot restore

  Does anyone know how to restore before windows 8 download. Installation of big mistake and now I cannot uninstall or restore to a point before. I'm not computer ace, can anyone help? Thanks in advance

  Hi Mikey,

  Please write us with the following details.

  1. What version of Windows 8 you have installed on your computer?
  2. Why would you downgrade to Windows 7? What problem are you having with Windows 8?

  To descend from one operating system to another you are unable to perform a restore of the system as the operating system restore points will not have another operating system. You must install a new copy of Windows. In this case, you have installed Windows 8 on your computer and now you want to downgrade to Windows 7, I suggest you contact your manufacturer regarding this issue.

  I actually have this as an upgrade but good. If I format the C: drive to install the new OS will be the also deleted recovery partition?

• Downgrade from Windows 8 to 7

  Please list the steps. It was not a recent change.

  Hello Meade,

  Thanks for posting your question on the Microsoft community.

  Thank you for details on the issue.

  I also like the fact you want to downgrade to Windows 8 to 7.

  Your downgrade Windows 8 an earlier version of Windows depends as well on Windows 8 version you have and the method by which you got Windows 8. Not all editions of Windows provide downgrade rights. If you have right to demotion and decide to use them, you continue to keep the licence and the rights of use for your original version and can 'upgrade' to the rear at any time.

  I suggest you to refer to this article and check if it helps.

  Important notes:
  BIOS change / semiconductor (CMOS) to complementary metal oxide settings can cause serious problems that may prevent your computer from starting properly. Microsoft cannot guarantee that problems resulting from the configuration of the BIOS/CMOS settings can be solved. Changes to settings are at your own risk.

  I strongly recommend that you back up all your important files and folders on an external storage device before performing any type of BONE repair, upgrade, downgrade, or resettlement. You may lose all the programs installed, you may need to reinstall.

  I hope this information helps.

  If computers were purchased with Microsoft's Downgrade rights, they would be shipped with Windows 7 Pro 64 bit installed in the factory and restore HP 8/8.1 Pro 64-bit Windows included media. You will need create the restoration of Windows 7 Pro 64 - bit from at least one of these computers support.

  Boot from the Windows Vista DVD

  To learn how to change your BIOS options to boot from the DVD drive, the following tutorial:

  http://notebooks.com/2011/05/05/How-to-load-BIOS-and-change-boot-configuration/

  Click Install now
  Accept the license agreement
  When the option is displayed to select a type of installation, click (Custom advanced)

  Select the disk partition where you want to install Windows Vista click Next.

  You will receive the following warning:

  The partition you have selected may contain files from a previous Installation of Windows. If so, these files and folders will be moved to a folder named Windows.old. You will be able to access the information in Windows.old, but you will be able to use your previous version of Windows.

  (At all costs, do NOT click on anything in Format, deletion or Partition name.) So even do a custom installation, your personal files are still kept. Click OK

  The installation program will now begin installation. During installation, your computer will be restarted several times.
