How do I change a Windows 10 program factory installed on a new computer to a Windows 7 system?

First you have to buy Windows 7. You have a 6th generation Intel Core processor so the Windows 7 has to be modified to allow installation from a thumb drive. You want to gather up drivers in advance if possible. HP does not post Windows 7 drivers so they have to be sought out 1 by 1. It can be made to work but after a fair amount of effort. Rarely can I talk somebody out of such a project but unless there is a good reason there is a lot of work for a gain I have a hard time understanding. Still willing to help.
