Are UEFI problems only on Windoze 8 computers? Posted Nov 16, 2012 8:37 UTC (Fri) by rvfh (subscriber, #31018) [Link]
Would buying the same laptop but with the Windows 7 option (where it exists) kinda guarantee that we won't have to deal with this kind of issue?

Your only option is to demand Windows 7 32-bit, where you have BIOS legacy boot requirements, and accept that that's only available on restricted hardware nowadays.

This *is* the Windows 7 version, sadly, although it's a desktop rather than a laptop.
