i just bought a laptop for 2 weeks, and I wan play some offline game something like dynasty warrior 8 , Naruto,final fantasy ....
and cant play it ...becoz of OS
got any idea to downgrade to 7 from 10? without windowns 7 disc and CD key

what brand is your laptop?

HP 15-au102tx

first of all make sure that on HP's website there are drivers for this model for windows 7

after that google for windows 7 ultimate HP OEM and download the ISO. No CD key needed as it activates automatically if based on HP BIOS

only got this selection... can support ??


Attached thumbnail(s)

means its not impossible just harder to hunt down the compatible drivers ... question is that if you want to go through the trouble?

I can try

have fun

after download just straight run the program ?

dude I can't walk you step by step how to do it. Use google to search for making bootable windows 7 USB and how to install windows step by step

Can't this old games run on compatibility mode?

Windows 10 also can start these games, why need to downgrade?

I just don't tell you, I was played Red Alert 2 with my Windows 10 for many years already.

old model laptop after latest upgrade slow like hell and cant go back anymore. bios manufacturer also not support. Now pretty much in deep shit

Why can't you play those games in Windows 10? Those games aren't old until you can't play it in Windows 10. You can even play the old Starcraft, Diablo and Red Alert.

you should spent some amount of money to buy a SSD to replace your old laptop harddisk. I guarantee an old Intel Core 2 Duo will able to boot up Windows 10 the latest V1703 Creators Update in flash speed. Your laptop is getting slow, 1st reason is CPU heatsink is getting too much of dust and thick until like cotton. When CPU is overheat then your CPU usage keep running at 100%. Second reason is your harddisk is spinning too much until 5 years later, your harddisk was getting unhealthy. So its time for your harddisk to get retired. Please go replace a new SSD then install a clean, new Windows 10 directly.

I don't find any old games can't play in Windows 10. I even got install the origin Quake, Diablo and etc old old games and it run perfectly in Windows 10.

Really see no point downgrade to Windows 7.

your laptop using 7t gen intel core series you cant downgrade to windows 7/8 since windows setup cant detect your mouse and keyboard,Even you installed windows 7 You cant update your windows which mean you cant get critical update

Actually Win10 is not hard to handle. Just spent few months time to adapt the new interface. The latest version Windows 10 1703 & 1709 were removed control panel from the WIN+X menu. You can add them back by using this tool.

The issue with TS might be do not know how to play in compatible mode.. It happens during most games only support XP and cannot play in Win 7..

Just need to google a bit more and not scared to click here and there
