Cheap Computer Hard Drive Question.

[jblanda]

Hello, I am looking to buy this computer for school: (Link) but last time i worked with a windows 8 laptop, I could not install Windows 7 on it, even when i put an older hard drive with windows 7 on it into the laptop. I have an SSD in my current laptop, but I'm not sure if this new computer will even boot off of it. (and if it can't I need to find something that can)

what is your question? just use the Win 8 on the SSD. Why do you want Win 7 on a ltop anyway?

I have a Windows 7 Boot Disk, but not a Windows 8/8.1 Disk. I prefer 7 to 8/8.1 anyways, but i need to know if the motherboard will allow me to boot an OS other than 8/8.1
