Hi guys, I really love Win 7 but it seems like it's time to finally update. I've dual booted Win 10 for a few days (this caused many problems which I was able to solve thankfully) and I think I'm going upgrade my Win 7 to Win 10 now. Only issue is that I've already created partitions for the dual boot. How do I undo all of that so that I only have one OS on my hard drive? ...

The reason I installed 7 on a new drive was...

Hello everyone. Before I go on, I'd like to state that I'm a noob and I do apologize if my concerns sound stupid. So I'd like to perform a clean install. It's a Win 7 Home OEM.

However, I'm not sure if it's possible due to a couple of...

Another volunteer has just donated his old pc, a Gigabyte motherboard with all solid capacitors, so reliable, I hope. It had W7 on it until last year when he upgraded it to W10. After donating it, he hasn't been able to find the W7 disc with...

I'm trying create a dual boot system and install Windows 7 Enterprise 64x on an external USB3.1C SSD, but I've run into a few hiccups so far.

I have a Sony VAIO PCG-71312L. Before it was given to me, Windows was uninstalled and replaced with Ubuntu. I do not have the recovery or install disc that originally came with the laptop.

When I download software from official webpages then I observe oftentimes a setup.exe AND a setup.msi within the just downloaded single *.zip installer package. Example: http://www.bctester.de/en/download.html Why are there TWO files? Shouldn't it be enough to provide only ONE (either exe or msi) file for installation?

So got this really lightweight machine, and was hoping to get windows 7 home premium (uefi ready) on it as windows 10 is just not for me. Unfortunately, after the installation it won't boot. So I tried windows 8.1, which installed well, but the keyboard and trackpad would not be recognized. So I reinstalled windows 10 (in which the trackpad also doesn't work until I install the chipset drivers)...
