Can anyone help me work out how to roll back or dual boot with UEFI. I just got a new laptop which came with Win 8. Let's not debate the reasons but I am determined to go back to Win 7. I put my old hard drive with Win 7 from my old laptop into the second drive slot of the new laptop. I can read the drive but the boot menu gives me the following choices only:
Windows boot manager (this gives me Win 8)
UEFI device (type 4)
UEFI device (type 6)
Is there any way I can boot Win 7 using the old drive? If so, how? Once Win 7 is working I don't mind getting rid of Win 8 but I don't want to risk having no OS.
If I can't use the old drive, how do I do a dual boot install of Win 7 without risking the old OS? Can I use the licence from my old installation? (I will be throwing away the old laptop).
