G'day,
Some time ago a bought a laptop that came with Win 7 installed. I then went ahead and bought the update to Windows 8 and then updated to 8.1. After six months or so I have decided that I would rather use Win 7. My question is; can I just insert the Win 7 installation disc and start over from scratch? I do not care what happens to anything that is currently running in Windows 8.1, I have backups, etc., but I don't want to ruin the machine. Any advice would be very welcome. Thanks up front.
Cheers,
Fritz
