Windows 7 Installation

Hi. So, I want to install Windows 7 on my new laptop. I tried once with NVMe support but it said the BIOS wasn't ACPI compliant. Would it work if I installed the image using DISKPART or do I have to update my BIOS? If I need a BIOS update then could someone tell me which one? Thanks

Specs:

HP Laptop 15-db1xxx

x64 bit based

8GB RAM

236 GB NVMe SSD (not sure)

Windows for home | Previous Windows versions | Install and upgrade

    1. Windows 7 does not come for free.

    Microsoft no longer sells it and we can not recommend anywhere safe to buy it from.

    1. You Computer manufacturer has to support and supply Windows 7 drivers for your exact model number for 7 to install and work correctly.

    Warning:

    You do not buy a Product Key by itself, as they are normally stolen/pirated, Volume Licenses which are not for private use, or MSDN keys which are not to be sold by the original subscription holder.

    Make sure that you buy the complete sealed package (DVD, license)

    Read Section: Beware of Product Keys sold separately.
