All the other places I've seen this laptop advertised says it comes installed with Windows 7 Professional 64-bit. Yours comes with Windows 8?

Yes it does. Windows 8 s not that bad once you get accustomed to it. I am even beginning to like it a little. I have seen the others with windows 7. But that is not the same laptop as this one very similar but not the same.

It is 64-bit operating system Windows 8.1, I bought a refurbished Acer Aspire R7-572, and the warranty is only 90 days.

I ordered mine with Windows 7, but they shipped with Windows 8 and had to send me a copy of Windows 7.

It comes with Windows 7 Professional 64 preinstalled (downrights) and it has the Windows 8 Pro 64-bit disc

Windows 7 Pro 64 bit. As are the Windows 8 Pro recovery disks included in the box.

No. The pc came with windows 7 pro, 64 bit but it did not have any other software installed. The only problem I've had with the computer was having to replace the hard drive when it failed but that was 2 yrs after I bought it. I have to say it is the best pc I have ever had. You just can't beat the price.

Eric, this unit actually comes with Windows 7 see the specs below, AZ listing information is wrong, we have informed them of the error. Operating System: Genuine Windows 7 Professional Operating System Architecture: 64-bit

I did the installation with Windows 7 Professional and had no problems. According to Microsoft it should also load with Windows 8.

It comes with windows 7 preinstalled. If you want 8 you have to recover into 8.

The laptop comes with Windows 8.1 Standard installed. The standard edition will not let you join the laptop to an active directory domain or use the Hyper-V hypervisor to create virtual machines, among other things. I think the upgrade to Pro can be found for around $100.

When I received mine, it was Windows 7 Pro with Windows 8 Pro discs (for upgrade).

It means that the system comes with Windows 7 Professional installed instead of Windows 8 Pro. We also received the Windows 8 disk with the system.

That's funny, because mine came with Windows 7 Home 32-bit and only 2 gb of ram. I paid $200 for it. Make sure you check with each individual seller to see what they're selling you.

It runs Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit. Not Windows 7 Pro. I guess it was something wrong by who first listed this product on Amazon marketplace.

Actually, this model is already downgraded to Windows 7 Pro 64-bit at Lenovo's factory. When you turn the computer on, Windows 7 Pro will come up. Windows 8 disks are included with the package in case if you ever decide to upgrade. This computer has one HDMI port.

Has Windows 8 Professional. Not sure if the other answerers are just looking at the spec sheet which is misleading. I own this laptop.
