Hello @josefkarlik 

Windows XP is long time end of life and not supported by its creator Microsoft -> https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/windows/end-of-windows-xp-support

Same goes for Windows 7 -> https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-365/windows/end-of-windows-7-support

While you may still be able to find their installation media at certain places, it is *not* recommended that you use these legacy operating systems. This is old code, legacy software which may not support new programs you may want to run and may have security issues built-in which cannot be fixed because their vendor (Microsoft) no longer supports them.

• If you want to run Windows on your device, you should use Windows 10
• You may also consider different operating systems (Linux-based Ubuntu/LinuxMint, etc)

Please, provode more information why do you want to have XP or 7 on your PC and why not run Windows 10, for example ? If you share details, I may be able to advice for your best solution.
