If you run into problems with Theog's excellent tutorial showing how to turn off Win8 PC's Secure Boot to install in UEFI mode, you can also Bypass UEFI to Install WIn7
If you don't have a spare Windows 7 license I wonder if providing Windows 7 functionality with appropriate third party software would suit most people?
I thought there was a tutorial on this?
