Hi everyone,
When I bought my Samsung Notebook, it came with Win7 pre-installed. When Win10 came out, I decided to upgrade. I soon realized that it was very unstable, Energy consuming and slow as heck. So I recently decided to go back to Win7. I downloaded Win7 ultimate, backed up my data, then put Win7 in a bootable USB and installed it. 1 thing I noted was that when i Formatted and Deleted all my drives, they wouldn't merge as one big unallocated hard drive. It didn't bother me at the time but it might pointing to an error or problem. Later on when Win7 was fully installed, I downloaded some network drivers (through another laptop) and installed them. Then it asked me to reboot to finish the install, so I did. But then when It went into the BIOS boot it froze there (where it asks F2 for Setup and F4 for recovery, see image attached). Then only way I found to boot up windows was to change the boot order to have USB first, then plug in the USB with Win7 install, and when it asks me to press a button to boot from USB, I don't do anything, and Windows Starts up.
I've looked everywhere for a solution to this, so this is why I'm asking here.
If any information is needed (screenshots or computer information) just ask and I will add it on my post as an EDIT.
Thank you in advance for anyone who manages to help me.
