Hi, I have a ASUS VivoBook X509-FB laptop. I want to install Windows 7 in dual-boot with Windows 10, but when I start the installer from the USB the logo animation freezes, like this:

.
How can I solve this?
Thanks in advance,
Mindrek

I don't have a Launch CSM/Legacy Boot option in my laptop.

Does it have csm support? I wouldn't buy anything that doesn't.

Allegedly, there is a workaround, but it is not very simple.

boot windows 7 on restrictive devices

Best to avoid recent Asus laptops. They try and restrict what you can do.
