How do I go from a retail w8 pro to my preinstalled oem w7? When i try the reinstall everything button in w8 it says i lack files or something.

Sorry for posting so much regarding windows, really noob on the softwareside

If you install W8 over it then it's gone. Look for a recovery partition and boot with a Boot Repair Disk.

I'll sit on it forever until either a power or hardware failure.
