Windows 7 Installation
If you purchased HP Pavilion g6 with windows 8 and want to downgrade it to windows 7, you may encounter this error when trying to install windows 7:
"selected boot image did not authenticate."
So, what you have to do is enable Legacy boot in BIOS. Turn on your HP laptop and go to BIOS
and look at system configuration, change "legacy support" from Disable to Enable.
Fort most HP Pavilion g6 Drivers, you will find only windows 7 64-bit drivers available in the official HP download link. Here I will list out the drivers for both windows 7 32-bit and windows 7-64 bit.
