i can't install windows 7, setup requires drivers
I want to install windows 7 on my laptop, I've tried these methods, with the following results:
-Using Ventoy on usb drive (Freezes at "Starting Windows" screen)
-Creating a bootable usb stick using Rufus (Standard windows installation, both MBR and GPT fail to boot)
-Mounting the ISO and running setup.exe (Setup asks me to load drivers for Intel SD Host Controller)
I've disabled Secure Boot on my BIOS settings, but I can't find any option that enables the legacy bootloader or CSM.
The ISO file has a size under 4 GB, and it's for Windows 7 Home Premium.
I don't know how to proceed.
This is where the ISO file is hosted: W7 Home Premium 64 bits SP1
I can't assure that file is safe to use, I used it because I'm not concerned about damages, I'll have to get this device fixed anyways. It seems to be safe tho. It just freezes or doesn't boot.
