I hate windows 8. How can I deinstall it and load windows 7

I just bought a HP computer and it came with Windows 8 loaded on it. I've tried 6 tasks in the past three weeks and everyone of them was a pain in the butt. I've had administrator issues, compatibility problems unique to others, printer tray issues and much more. It's just not worthy the effort. Should I return the computer and buy another with Windows 7 or should I buy a copy of 7 and load it over the top of this mess?????

Answer

You will first need to go to the manufacturers website for your model computer and first find out if there are Windows 7 native drivers available. A lot of computers that come preloaded with Windows 8 do not have native driver support for Windows 7 by the manufacturer. If there are no native drivers, you will have to consider returning the machine and purchasing a machine preloaded with Windows 8 Pro with downgrade rights to Windows 7 Professional. Or look through the manufacturers catalogue for systems already preloaded with Windows 7, usually the business line will have these options.
