Okay odd task: Install Windows 7 on a minisforum N40. It comes with Win10 1903. I have been asked to install Win 7 but the CTO of the company. Now, This will not be an internal enterprise PC. This is a side project.
So I have tried about 6 different ways to inject Win 7. I have all the drivers for the device and the script that installs Win 10. My wish is to inject Win 7 somewhere. There is the Images location. So I see a WIM file. I am attaching a screenshot of the "Images" directory and the install script. I don't have any issue with replacing a WIM file or DISM install.WIM to Install.ESD...
Anyone better than me able to decode a way to get 7 into this PC?
