Trying to install-Incompatible device

So I've been trying to install windows 7 on my Lenovo S410p by creating a new partition of 100GB. When I first tried to install windows7 the installer said the partition is not GPT something(?) but I ignored it, proceed. After the laptop restart the first time, the installer will get stuck at windows7 loading screen. After i force shut down and turn to my windows8.1, it says my laptop is not compatible. Then I run Upgrade Advisor and noticed the only thing incompatible was Lenovo ACPI-Compliant Virtual Power Controller. Does formatting the whole disk help? Had some problem with this w8.1 and is it even important?
