Dell Inspiron updated - can I reinstall with Win 7
I have a laptop that is horribly slow since forced onto Windows 10 (half an hour awaiting updates every time I boot up). I do have a retail Windows 7 Ultimate available (not oem) and wondered if I can reformat this laptop and then reinstall with Win 7. If so, are there any cautions other than 7 isn't being a current version. I run 7 successfully on desktop but would appreciate being able to use the laptop after I upgrade the desktop. Thanks.
laptop is Inspiron 1547
i5 quad-core 1.7ghz
8gb ram
1 T hdd
