Sorry I don't know. But, if an answer comes in on how and cost, I would definitely be interested.

As long as you have a copy of Windows 7 sure. Windows 8 runs fine and is actually quite simple to use once you get used to a few changes.

I'm not a fan of Windows 8, but when used with a touchscreen (which it was designed for) it works well. You can load 7, but expect some difficulty.

no, you can only upgrade, not downgrade. I thought windows 8 would suck, but after a few minutes with it, it was very intuitive. I have over 280 games on steam and every one of them is compatible with windows 8.

Well the one I have is Windows 7 not too happy about that but I am finally getting use to it. Eventually I will probably upgrade it to 8

I haven't tried it nor do I use Windows eight anymore. For me windows 7 is fine.

I'm sorry I don't use Windows 8. I use Windows 7 and wait until they come out with Windows 9 or 10.

Negative. These are 2 completely different systems. You can't upgrade from 7 to 8 for free. If it had Windows 8 installed, then you could easily upgrade to 8.1.

You will have to buy the windows program and delete the 8 and reinstall the 7. Leave it to a computer guy to do it.

Microsoft doesn't offer a downgrade to 7. You would have to buy Windows 7 (which is pretty expensive), and install the new operating system from the disc. Most computers now come with Windows 8. Win8 isn't going anywhere, so I suggest forcing yourself to getting used to it or fork out the cash. Microsoft also offers a free upgrade to Windows 8.1.

No, but you can set up Windows 8 to emulate Windows 7. Check out Computershpper.com for some tips.

It's got Windows 8. So, do you mean DOWNgraded? Or are you being facetious?

Oh, you silly thing. There's a reason Windows 7 is the number 1 seller. Do a little bit of research on the issues with 8.

I have no idea. I got this one because it had Windows 7 and I did not want 8!

There is no reason why this machine could not be upgraded. I'm not a fan of WIN8 and you would have to buy the program separately but otherwise it should be fine running on the new OS.

Sadly not. I'm sorry. But downgrading to Windows 7 should boost your speed considerably.
