Hello

 

I have bought a laptop from cyberpower PC and just tried to reinstall my windows... from Windows 10 ..To Windows 7 because I don't really feel like using Windows 10 at this moment  .... Well I made a bootable USB drive and tried to reinstall it but each time I do go in the boot menu ... and select my USB.. it just doesn't take it as a bootable USB... it just continues loading up the Win 10 .... ive tried with 2 methods of booting my USB... even tho it was supposed to work straight away.

Microsoft Tool, Command prompt manually and none of them have succeed. on my PC they work.. but not on the new laptop. so .. :/

PS:It shows in the boot menu but doesn't want to load up the files , my opinion..

 

Any of you have any idea why this might be happening ?

How did you make the bootable USB? Did you use the Windows Media Creation Tool from Microsoft? Click here to download the tool

Ive also tried to use their win10 disk .. well that boots up .. but unfortunately I don't have an empty disk to try booting up on a disk win7 ... so I have wanted to use the USB .. as a faster option .. :/ so is something wrong with the USB option.. I also tried to change from a port to another but is not the case.

Is it running skylake if yes, you are out of luck

Also make sure that the laptop that you want to downgrade have windows 7 drivers otherwise it's better to stay with Windows 10
