First of all Hi, i'm a new user here alltho techguy helpt me out a few times (Searching the forums ;)) but not this time & just didnt make an account yet.
Now i hope some of you guys can help me out.
Project Sketch:
I have this Acer W700 Tablet which had Win 8 pre-installed on it. now first of all i hate win 8 it just doesnt fit my needs. (i work in the Industrial Automation and have to use allot of software thats just not compatible with Win 8.)
So why not install Win 7 on it right?
After making a bootable Win 7 USB drive i used a USB hub to connect both the USB and an external keyboard for controls (the W700 only has one USB 3.0 slot..)
Changed the the boot type to UEFI did a restart and then used the keyboard to startup pressing F12 to get into the boot menu and then select my USB drive.
Setup loads all files and then i get the menu to choose for keyboard settings and language etc..
But i cant use my keyboard or the touchscreen (obv not the touchscreen cause there are no drivers..) but why isnt the keyboard working? ive tried several USB keyboards none of them did the job so i guess the setup has no drivers to use it?
i hope somebody can help me out on this one.
With love,
SWKIPPY :cool:
