Hello folks!


I have an HP Pavilion 11e000eg which came with Windows 8 and has been upgraded to 10.  I am trying to make it backwards compatible for some of my older software by creating a partition with Windows Vista (Already tried compatibility mode, VirtualBox and VMware).

In the beginning my attempts to install Vista went normal to the point where the machine restarts. It would end up with a black screen. Restarting again would leave the option to start with Windows Setup or Windows 10. Windows Setup would then end with this error:

0xc0000428
System32/drivers/tcpip.sys
can not verify the digital signature for this file

 

After some searching around I found a topic telling to disable secure boot and enable legacy boot in the BIOS to be able to boot from CD\DVD with Windows versions from 7 and older. After trying another install I now get the following error:

***stop: 0x0000001e (0xffffffffc0000005, 0xfffff800018706a7, 0x0000000000000000, oxffffffffffffffff)

 

From what I understand this error happens when you have too little disk space (I gave it 50 GB where 40 GB is the minimum). Driver problems (But which one?). Or when the BIOS needs to be upgraded. However I'd rather ask here before doing anything in that direction.


I am still able to run Windows 10 so there's no man overboard. But it is getting kinda frustrating to run into dead ends. How am I supose to create a dual boot on this machine?

Windows 10 Home (recovery partition, no cd present)
AMD A4-1250 APU with Radeon(TM) HD Graphics 1.00 GHz

4.00 GB (3.46 GB Usable)

64-bit Operating System, x64-based processor
