In fact there are no win7 drivers for it all and it might be a tuff task to get it to run with this os. But that is besides the point, I am a Windows 7 user and we wish not to fix something that isn't broken, thank you.įirst of all are you sure it is not a hardware error ? Does the laptop work with the Win10 installation ?ĭo you use the usb 2.0 or the 3.0 port for the install-stick ? Win7 doesn't support the 3.0 port without additional drivers (that are not offered for the laptop). The laptop is a budget entry level model, only 4GB of RAM, Windows 10 is too processor intensive. The boot manager does indeed recognise the second OS (install media) My ASUS I totally deleted Windows 10, but for the sake of a new computer, with included Bloat (Asus apps, PDF editor, etc) I wish to run Windows 7 alongside. Stop code: 0x0000007E (there is more information, I have a screenshot, can I attach it?) Thank you so much for your reply and willingness to assist… Questions, questions. What the stop code of the bsod ? You are trying to set up a dual boot system? And there is space for the second primary partition already? And the boot manager recognizes the second os already And why does the laptop 'struggle with win10' ? And why do you want to install an outdated os anyway ? Computers these days seem to be going backwards, with less customizeability freely available at our disposal. Have spent the past few days scouring these forums, but have yet to find a solution to this 'modern' problem.

Am also waiting on Linux Mint 18, but today I need Windows 7 so please help!

Her new Asus X540s struggles with Win10, regardless, we don't want Win 10, but will keep it as the main C partition for now. Now to put things into context my daughter wanted a computer like mine, which is Asus X75VC, of which I have no issues running Windows 7. It isn't until just after 'Starting Windows' does the screen go blue with said verbage.

I am well versed with PC's, after all I am able to get the USB Flash drive recognized and started. We get an error message of which I attach a screenshot (well a photo of the screen). Hello, I have recently bought my daughter her first laptop as a gift and have been racking my brains as to why Windows 7 won't install.
