Yes, you can but make sure that the source computer is running on Windows 7 32-bit.

Despite what others will say, you can. You have to run it in compatibility mode for WinXP-32bit (Or previous Windows if it gives you the option). This worked for me in windows Vista/7. If you're running Win8 I can't say for sure. There might have been another thing to install (A roommate stole my disk so I can't try) some quick googling should help.

Unfortunately not, I bet you could troll around google and find some drivers but it doesn't come with any and Windows is clueless. As always, the cheapest solutions turns out to be the worst one :)

No, however you can copy the setup file onto a flash drive and install it from that.

Mine had windows 7 installed but it comes with the Disc to install Windows 8.1. You can install either system, but can't install them as a dual boot system. Either one or the other.

Good question! I did not do that type of installation. I know there is a disc that came with it, but I did not need to use it for windows installation. I would try and ask the vendor selling this item if they can answer it for you.

I am almost positive that you can. I have not fully downloaded to Windows 8.1.

Yes. If it doesn't, you can always use the Windows Backwards Compatibility feature.

Yes you should be able to install windows 7 64 bit. They have drivers too which confirms it 100%http://h10025.www1.hp.com/ewfrf/wc/softwareCategory?product=3979121&cc;=us&dlc;=en&l;c=en

Likely not. Your Windows 8 installation is likely on DVD. Most Microsoft install disks are on DVD due to their size. Now, if you want to switch over to linux, there are many distros that will install to your hard drive from a CD. Everyone should experience building a desktop. Way to go!

I had 64 bit Windows 7 installed. Since it's a custom build you can tell them what you want.

Yes, I have Win7 installed. I did upgrade the memory to I believe 6gb, but you could probably install with just 1gb. It would run slower, though.

You can either use window 7 or window 8 which ever one you prefer, it comes with the CD to download window 8.

Yes you can. Great PC, for low level performance. Microsoft office & desktop works great. Enjoy

I don't think you can, but I've read that you can uninstall windows 8 and install windows 7

No, but you can set up Windows 8 to emulate Windows 7. Check out Computershpper.com for some tips.
