Listed as "Windows 7", but in the only review it states "getting use to Windows 8". Which one is it?

My computer came with Windows 7 Professional as described in the advertisement. I sent a e-mail requesting Windows 7 (Pro) or I wouldn't accept it. They responded via e-mail and said this is a Windows 7 (Pro) computer. Which it was after receiving it. I suggest if you desire Windows 7 than e-mail them prior shipment and they will verify it. They are a good company to deal with and are willing to upgrade or just help out with any question.

David,When I ordered this computer it came with Windows 8. Still, I would call CPU Solutions and confirm which version of Windows it ships with. CPU Solutions is easy to work with, and I have purchased two computers from them, and both work fabulously. Just make sure you get the video card you really need.

It now comes with Windows 7 Home. If you would like Windows 8.1 you can let us know after you have ordered and we can change it for you.

I am hoping someone will answer this question as "Windows 8" is the worst OS I have encounter and will not purchase another laptop without the option to revert to 7.

Mine came with Windows 7 Professional installed, and 2 "restore" CDs for Windows 8, or at least that's what they are labeled. Honestly, I like Windows 7 so well that I'm not worried about pursuing Windows 8, especially since this model doesn't have a touchscreen.

The one i received stated win 7 and that is what was installed. I did notice that all the documentation on the system was for win8 so i assume that this is a win8 capable machine that was rolled back to win 7 and am very happy with the machine.

Mine has win 8.1 on it. You can tell when you turn it on and if it has the windows logo in the left corner it's windows 8.1. Even if it comes with win 8.0 it is just an update from the windows store after you install a certain update to allow it from the store. The. There is the windows 8.1 update. It adds a lot of fixes to 8.1

It's got Windows 8. So, do you mean DOWNgraded? Or are you being facetious?

Although I was a fan of windows 7 and absolutely hated windows 8, I would suggest an upgrade to windows 10. Its free and more user friendly than windows 7 with more useful features. I recently made the upgrade and didn't have any trouble at all learning the new system unlike windows 8 which I never felt comfortable with, even after a year and a half.

I think it is Windows 8, but my son-in-law fixed it so it looks and acts like Windows 7. The instructions for how to do that can be found online. I just don't know where...he took care of it for me!

Windows 8 is not listed as an option on the box, I use it on Windows 7, hope this helps.

My machine shipped with Windows 8. I am running Classic Shell (free, download.com) which will give you a choice of looking like Windows Classic, Win XP or Win 7 when you boot up. Helps with the learning curve.

Windows 8 is a major overhaul to the Windows setup that most people do not like. I specifically bought this computer because I did not want Windows 8. So it is probably Windows 7 because there is still some demand for it out there.

I think you will have to buy a copy and reimage it. I have been very happy with Windows 8. You might want to try it for a while before investing in 7. Good luck!

I don't know about Windows 8, I don't use windows 8, but I do run Windows 7 without any problems at all.

No, the OS is windows 8, but you can simulate windows 7 on the desktop. That is why I decided to keep it as is.

When I purchased this PC in July, 2014, it was Windows 7 Pro. I would check very carefully now because Windows 7 may not be available from manufacturers now. Windows 8 isn't too bad, and with the right start menu software that can be found online for free, it actually works better than I thought. Besides,a free upgrade to Windows 10 will be available very soon.
