    I just bought SVE1512Y1E and it came with Windows 8 Home Premium installed on it. Windows 8 causes many problems when I use Dev-C++, Eclipse for Android development...etc. and for these reasons I wanted to uninstall Win8 and install Win7 since it works like a charm with the tools that I mentionned.

    The problem is that, I can not boot the notebook from the CD/USB as I was used to do it on Dell XPS with Win7.

    Could you please help me to get rid of Win8 and install Win7?
