Hello,
I bought an ASUS X75V equipped with WINDOWS 8 in a large store in mid-December. I also purchased a WINDOWS 7 software online on the same day. The software only arrived a few days ago.
The goal was to replace W8 with W7. The reason was that the elderly person (like me) for whom this computer was intended did not want W8.
The installation of W7 went well, with reformatting of the disk.
So the installation is complete. Testing communication "installing the network card driver."
After inventory, 6 drivers are missing: - SM Bus - USB Bus - Network - Ethernet - PCI - 3D Video.
A phone call to ASUS: this computer was designed for W8, drivers for W7 do not exist.
What can I do? (besides throwing it away)
Thank you for your help and ideas.

You can try the Windows 8 drivers or go get the right drivers from the manufacturer's website for each device, but I have just one question: why did you want to install Windows 7 when a simple application like Classic Shell could have restored the Start menu, bypassing MUI?

No, it didn't work.
I couldn't go back.
A friend suggested UNIX.
So I installed Ubuntu One with a lot of apprehension and suspicion.
Two or three painful days of adaptation, and the more it went on, the more I liked it.
Now (10 days later) I'm convinced.
I wonder how Microsoft can continue to profit at our expense while their system becomes more and more rigid and unstable.
To answer your question (why):
I lost my desktop organization twice after the restart that followed the receipt of updates. Tiles moved or missing.
And why go through W8 systematically to get to a pseudo W7 (quite incomplete).
If one day screens become touch screens and people want to leave fingerprints on them, I might reconsider this opinion.

A couple of days of painful adaptation. Then the more days went by, the more I liked it.
Now (10 days later) I'm won over.
I wonder how Microsoft can continue to reap profits at our expense while their system becomes increasingly rigid and unstable.
