Searched "downgrade Win8 pro to Win7 pro" in the forum and surprisingly didn't get a hit so that's why I'm creating this new thread.
My Thinkpad came with Windows 8 Pro 64 but I want to downgrade it to Windows 7 Pro 64. Can anyone direct to instructions that will enable me to do this and still reinstall Windows 8 at any time? Called Lenovo support but they wanted $45 for downgrade disks and I just wasn't prepared to pay that.
Frankly, I want to do this because I've read that many people, after trying both OS's, prefer 7 over 8. Thanks.
