Microsoft Windows 10 (64-bit)

Hello
As in the title, I have a serious problem with the notebook.
I downloaded a ISO 64 bit of Windows 7, I insert the DVD into the player and the disk does not start booting, I checked everything from the BIOS are right, what's the problem?
I have read that there is a boot boot protection as you can remove and insert any ISO? Do you have a configuration BIOS sample photo for my Hp 250 G3 ?.
Another thing I do not have the recovery disk where you download?
I would like to put windows 7 on windows 10 because I find it unstable.
Thank you for answering.

Hello,

 

If you're from Europe, you can get recovery media for your machine from best2serve.com, and that would bring you back to the factory installed Windows 8.1. That's the simplest and quickest solution. No fooling around with iso images, drivers, etc etc.

 

If you insist on installing Windows 7, you need to disable secure boot from bios.

 

I'd stick to the factory image if I were you, save yourself the trouble, unless you really enjoy tinkering with the laptop.

 

Oh and I'm not from Hp or anything.

 

Cheers
