    I have an Aspire S7-391 which has Windows 8.1 installed, I wanted to install Windows 7, so made a boot disk and ISO file to USB, during install there where a number of active partitions so has I would normally do on a Laptop or Desktop consolidated all into 1 partition, after that I was getting message "Setup was unable to create a new system partition" so I think some of the partitions are used to install I then Identified that the Hard Drive is not a normal 2.5 inch Sata drive, oh dear", would appreciate any help to get me back on track to allow me to install Windows.
