If you have been foolish enough to install Win 8

Uninstall Windows 8 if you installed it over Windows 7

If you installed Windows 8 after formatting or deleting your Windows 7 installation, the only way to go back is to wipe over the Windows 8 install.

You need to do a clean install of Windows 7, which will wipe your PC. So you will need Windows 7 installation media (and a product key).


 * __And you need to back up all your files to a separate drive.__**

Your PC will be wiped clean in the move.
