Hi to all, recently i buyed an HP 15-Ay007la. I never liked W10, and W8. I want W7 on my notebook. And a, i can't install it. When the installation starts, windows shows an error saying "Driver not detected", and the installation aborts. I tried downloading USB drivers, CD Drivers, HDD Drivers, and nothing, nothing of that driver's works..... Someone had a solution?, i updated the BIOS several times, and i try before the installation change to Legacy Mode, i think that are an space field missing, the HDD mode, i don't found one, maybe i need change SATA to IDE, but i didn't found it. Thanks for reading.
EDIT: I tried several times during the installation perform an clean installation, by pressing Shift+F10, diskpart, clean, create partition and exit. Nothing of this worked. So, performing an clean installation doesn't work. Diskpart detect's HDD, but Installation Not.
Solved! Go to Solution.

Hi:
You do have to have the BIOS in legacy mode with secure boot disabled as W7 is not compatible with secure boot.
See if running this tool works for your machine. There is a readme file on the link for instructions.
