Windows 7 and 8 support ended with the 6th generation Intel CPUs -- anything newer is Windows 10 only.  Whatever application you're running that won't work under Windows 10 needs to be updated or replaced with one that will - or you will be forever stuck with 2017 and older hardware.    
Hello. I was gifted a new Dell Vostro laptop and I tried to install Windows 9 on it but after the installation reboots the laptop, there is an error - 0xc0000001. At one of the screens it showed an "internal memory error". I ran the troubleshooting option from the bootable USB stick but it didn't help. I installed Windows 10 on the same machine but I have problems with installing Windows 8.1 and Windows 7 (for the Windows 7 installation USB stick, the system can't find the correct driver - probably because of the SSD). Windows 8.1 seems to be installed but it says: "Your PC ran into a problem and needs to reboot," something of that sort. What can I do? I have programs which don't run on Windows 10 (particularly one portable video editing program) and I would be grateful if you tell me how to install Windows 7 or Windows 8.1. If there is a driver to include in the Windows 7 installation media, please, let me know where I can download it from. And for the Windows 8 (I would like to have the three systems on the same laptop, for different purposes), how can i get it to run? I have installed it several times and I get the same issue. Before choosing a Dell laptop I considered buying an Asus. So please, don't disappoint me.
