Product: hp pavilion laptop 15-cs3xxx
Operating System: Microsoft Windows 7 (64-bit)

I am trying to install windows 7 on my hp pavilion laptop 15-cs3xxx.  The install freezes when it gets to "starting windows"

This computer came with windows 10 installed.

Question: Is it possible to install windows 7 on this computer?

 

Thanks,

 

Don James aka outlawtx

What is your hp pavilion laptop 15-cs3xxx  ? I believe it comes with an Intel Gen 10 processor. The answer is NO, you can't install Windows 7 on it, this is not going to work because vendors do not write/supply drivers for it.
