Product: HP Stream 11-y005ur

Is it possible to install Windows 7 on HP Stream 11-y005ur <Y7X24EA> notebook? Do all the necessary drivers exist for this case or there might be problems?

 

(the default system is Windows 10 Home Edition, 64-bit)

Hi,

 

From its homepage, only Windows 10

Hi:

 

You can try the W7 64 bit drivers from the HP 250 G4 which has similar hardware.  Do not use any of the BIOS or firmware files.

Make the set of recovery media before attempting to install W7.

 

You will need to go into the BIOS, enable legacy mode and disable secure boot.  W7 is not compatible with secure boot.
