I already have a laptop with Windows 10. I decided to add an additional windows 7 since I had some programs that only work on 7 ( tried compatibility mode). I made a separate partition from my main partition by 'shrink volume'. I changed the bios setting to Legacy booting and finally installed the windows 7. After the installation I could see the boot menu and had options to choose between the OSes. But when tried to install win7 drivers for my laptop on the win 7 partition I could not and was getting the error ' the system doesnot meet the minimum requirements for program" and then the driver setup exits. So Basically I cannot install any drivers on the win7. Please help
 
Solution
It has nothing to do due to dual boot. Once you BOOT in W7 drivers have to be compatible with it and rest of the computer. Most likely they are not for W7 or you have different 32 or 64 bit drivers.
