So I wanted Windows 7 back on my HP Envy 17 3200t.
I believe I first tried the basic Windows 7 OS. The internet didn't work. No problem, right? I could just get the driver from my Mac off the HP site and transfer it via USB. Problem is, the flash drive isn't recognized. When I plugged it in, there was no sound or anything.
Then, I tried several ISOs of the Ultimate version, all of which had the same problem as before; except one. There was one that detected my flash drive, let me transfer the driver and get internet access, only this happened to be a 32-bit OS. Having 2.xxGB RAM available out of my 8GB is clearly not wanted.
I have tried other suggestions from other forums like changing the drive letter but the drive doesn't show up in disk management or whatever. I can't quite figure this one out. Any ideas?
