I'm a programmer. Some programs that I use only work in windows 7.
for me, windows 10 is getting too much trouble.
I also don't like it because of some features in windows 10

I think the Intel chipset drivers are a nuisance.
I will try to convert windows 10 drivers to windows 7 drivers.
Because I feel helpless. or my computer will only be a gaming computer. at this price.
thanks everyone..

When you booted from the Win 7 installation disk you had no mouse or keyboard?
Many of us were successful on installing Win 7 on new hardware.
The main problem is that new hardware requires drivers (SATA, MVMe, USB3.x) that are not on the Win 7 installation disk. You have to add those drivers (SATA, MVMe, USB3.x) to the Win 7 installation disk.
Before you begin, make a disk image of your current installation on a external disk.
Have a look Update your Win 7 installation media.

To install Win 7 you must first set BIOS properly.
Under OS set it to "Other"
Some computers also has CSM (Compatible System Mode)
Disable fast Boot and Secure Boot.

You can install Win 7 as Legacy-MBR or UEFI-GPT
To install Win 7 as Legacy-MBR you must boot the installation disk as Legacy
To install Win 7 as UEFI-GPT you must boot the installation disk as UEFI

Can you be more specific "but When installing windows 7 x64, windows freezes on "windows starting" screen".
Did you disabled Secure boot on BIOS?
Is it when you boot the installation disk or after copying the files (first boot)?
Where did you get the installation disk?

"fast boot" and "Secure boot" are disabled in bios.

Computer freezes after loading files ("starting windows"). also consists of a red bar on screen.
my installation (untouched) disc (iso file) is from msdn. Driver Integration using ntlite.

I installed windows 7 on the virtual machine, and after installing the drivers,
I transferred this installation to disk. It was freezing during (first) boot ("starting windows").
I started in safe mode by pressing f8. But it stuck while loading disk.sys.
