Hey, I contacted Microsoft customer support and told him details. He said to contact here HP Supports.
So basically, I have created a Windows 7 Bootable flash drive. I went into my BIOS disabled secure-boot and booted into the flash drive. It said "Windows is loading files" and then the windows 7 boot animations plays halfway then crashes. I'm using a laptop and after it crashes the boot screen doesnt give errror code it just freezes.
Brand: HP | Specs: Intel core i7 11th gen, 16 GB RAM, Intel iris xe graphics, 500 GB SSD
The support agent told me to turn on TPM which is basically Secure Boot but I need to disable secure boot because the USB has a invalid signature. The agent said : "Yes, worry not as they have a workaround for this."
And then I ended the chat session. Don't tell me To upgrade to Windows 10. I know I will have security risks with windows 7 and it is end of life.
So please help if you can!
