Want to downgrade from Windows 8 for Windows 7 on my g7-2325dx Notebook Pavilion


Hello:

First of all, make your W8 recovery media set before installing W7 64-bit.  See the information below.

http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03481733

Then, you must change a bios setting to install and continue to run W7 on your PC. See info below.

http://support.HP.com/us-en/document/c03736054

Once Windows 7 installed...

First install the Chipset Driver AMD.  You want the 49.7 MB file.

http://support.AMD.com/en-us/download/chipset?OS=Windows 7-64

After you install the AMD chipset driver, you can use most of the W7 x 64 drivers for this model, except the wireless.

DO NOT USE ALL DOWNLOADS OF BIOS OR FIRMWARE FROM THIS LINK

http://h10025.www1.HP.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?OS=4063 & LC = on & CC = US & DLC = in & sw_lang = & Product = 5275...

I don't know what model of laptop wireless card has, then please do so that I can post the driver for the wireless card.

Or you can look in the category of network adapters in Windows 8 Device Manager and validate the model now.

Go to Device Manager and click on the network controller needing drivers.

Then click on the Details tab at the top of the control of the network window.

Now, you see a drop-down list of property and it is set by default to the Description of the unit.

Drop down on it and select the second item in the list (Hardware ID).

After the first string of characters that start with PCI\VEN

    Vita windows downgrade to windows xp

    I have Windows Vista (window professional vista OEMAct) so I want to Downgrade to Windows XP Vita, please provide GOLD key of Windows XP guide

    You cannot "downgrade".  The only way to switch to XP is to install XP to clean.  Before you anything make sure that XP drivers are available from the manufacturer of your computer.  If this isn't the case, stick with Vista.

    Vista downgrade rights ended when Vista was removed from retail sales.  In any case, they were available from the computer manufacturers.

    Nobody is going to provide you with a XP product key.  The only way to get a XP product key is to buy XP.

    If you have a software, you need to run under XP, you can do so by using Microsoft Virtual PC 2007.  However, you must provide your own copy of XP, including a product key.

    Hi Allen,.

    You will not be able to install XP on Win 7 using the upgrade disc. You will require your original operating system disk and you will have to boot from the OS installation disc, once installed you can use the disk to upgrade XP on this operating system. Another way is out to install your system disk and the boot of Winxp.

    I hope this helps.

    Usually, there is no method of downgrading to XP.  You will need to "reformat" the computer with Windows XP.

    Please note: you must first locate all the possible drivers of Windows XP you will need to: 'this computer', if they all are!

    I am looking for the hp support site and they only drivers for windows 10

    -that someone tried this with success

    Thank you

    Rudi

    Before you change or change anything, please create your personal HP recovery media.

    You'll need a new copy of Windows 7 64-bit with a Microsoft COA and a figure of 25 unused/valid key PID from Microsoft. Windows 7 DVD may not work properly on UEFI-based systems, this is why you may need to create a FAT32 UEFI USB Windows 7 for Windows 7 installation key to install correctly.

    You will need to DISABLE "Secure Boot" and ENABLE "Legacy Support" in the "Configuration of the BIOS start-up secure" on the settings page similar to what is shown below, until you try to install Windows 7.

    After you save the changes, the computer may ask that you confirm the changes... Accept the changes by typing the four digit code and press the ENTER"" key.

    After installing Windows 7, you will need to install any drivers necessary before being fully functional. Most of the Windows 7 drivers on the page of software and the driver HP Pavilion Notebook-15z ab000 CTO - should work on your computer. Please do not use any BIOS or Firmware from this page.

    Thanks for posting (text only) Windows Device Manager "Hardware ID" for all the remaining of the missing and/or unknown devices, as shown in the example below, and we can direct you to the correct drivers.

    If you have any other questions, feel free to ask.

  • Portege Z930 - Downgrade from Windows 8 for Windows 7

    Hi all

    I have serious problems with my new laptop Portege Z930-138. I wanted to downgrade from Win8 to Win7 and transferred my old iso of Win7 on a bootable USB.

    I changed the BIOSsetting CMS BIOS in order to boot from USB and it worked.
    But later, I deleted all partitions on my HARD drive in order to have a primary partition where to install my old Win7.

    However I can't do!

    Now I have 1 GB 119.1 unallocated space and there is no way to create a new partition from it.
    Also when I try to install Win7 it says the disc's style GPT.

    I also tried to convert it from the command prompt, but it does not work.

    You guys have any ideas what to do?

    If you have an HP computer with Windows 7 pre-installed,

    (a) you will not be able to find the drivers for your computer hardware for XP (except if you bought your computer, just like Windows 7 was spilled) - even if you could find somehow a copy of XP to install and

    (b) any person at HP who told you to contact Microsoft won't - HP is obliged by its license from Microsoft to provide you with a mechanism (it doesn't have to be physical CDs) to reinstall the operating system that was on the computer when you bought it.

    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.

  • Downgrade from Windows 7 to Windows Vista

    Hello

    I want to ask something about the downgrade from Windows 7 to Windows Vista Edition Home Premium!

    My laptop is Satellite L510. When I bought it, it came with Windows Vista Home Premium as its OS so I already created a recovery disk.
    Now, if I update to Windows 7 and if I want to downgrade to window Vista... often I just use this recovery disc to format to Windows Vista everything as before?

    Because they do not have the Windows Vista installation disk when I bought this laptop.
    And I want to ask now the window Vista already got a healthy recovery partition in my right HDdrive? If I update to Windows 7 then did the Window Vista healthy recovery partition is still there, or only the restore disc that I create before you reformat Windows Vista Home Premium box?

    Thanks to all who try to answer my question!

    All new laptops are shipped without DVD upgraders and everyone must create one. This is why Toshiba has designed small Creator called Toshiba Recovery tool. With this tool you can create recovery DVDs and use them for the installation of the OS more far.

    Whenever when you use, you'll have to factory settings and it will be like on the first day when launch you for the first time.

    When you have this recovery media, you can do whatever you want and, of course, install Win7 with HARD drive. One day, when you want to have Vista again just use created recovery DVD and you will have factory again.

    When you bought your laptop recovery image was recorded on the second partition of HARD drive in the folder called HDDRecovery. This image can be used to install Vista with the factory only settings. When you install Win7 these files can no longer be used and Vista must be installed from recovery created DVDs.

    All questions answered?
