Greetings
I boutht a P35K with pre-installed Windows 8 two weeks ago.
Now I wanted to install Windows 7.
First I deactivated secure boot, inserted the Windows 7 64 bit SP 1 DVD and restated the system.
The "press any key... " message appeared and I have done so.
After the "Windows is loading files" progress bar completed the message "starting windows" appeared and the setup freezed.
So I changed the OS type from UEFI OS to legacy OS, rebooted and selected UEFI: ODD
Now I was able to install Windows 7 without problems (GPT formatted).
But every time I select UEFI OS as OS type in UEFI Windows 7 freezes at startup.
What am I doing wrong?
