I bought a laptop with win 10, planing to downgrade it to win 7, but only now I noticed its hardware is not compatible with win 7. What now?

install gnu/linux

You have two choices:
>Wait for ReactOS
or the better solution
>install a Linux distro of your choice

use windows 10 and stop being a sperg

Install Slackware and make it look like Windows 98. The vintage 90's experience.

My problem with linux is that it won't run some of the games I play

1) Install Gentoo
2) Remove this thread
3) Kill yourself

like? im sure enabling proton will fix this issue.

>proton
Wine

Pajeet

Which games?

Wine within Steam without the need of another program. Proton.

>hardware not compatible
What do you mean? Be specific

>games
Fuck off to the manchildren board.

i5 8th generation doesn't support windows 7.

Why do so many people hate windows 8.1? You guys act like it's as bad as Win 10, when it still semi-respected your freedom to not have updates forced on you.

Install Ubuntu and run Windows 7 in KVM.

Windows 10 LTSB, then use gpedit and services to disable anything you don't want + make updates optional and telemetry as little as possible. Windows 10 is now simply not unavoidable unless you're really really skilled with linux and even then you'd have to make some compromises.

Why not just run windows 7 in windows 10 vm

OpenBSD

Cos I think he wants win 7 for gaming, so a VM isn't very helpful

Linux with GPU pass through for the VM is the patrician option.

it may semi-respect your update choice
it sure as hell doesn't respect your freedoms

Here is a useful link for the passthrough option wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/PCI_passthrough_via_OVMF

you shouldnt game on a laptop

downgrade to linux instead.

install windows 10 lite.
