Won this piece of shit laptop at work in a raffle
Lenovo Ideapad 310
It comes with Windows 10
Why the fuck can I not remove this fucking thing and install Windows 7 instead? This is so frustrating from their stupid BIOS method with the NOVO shit and secure boot faggotry
All methods to install 7 has failed.
Goddamn what the fuck
Don't complain about free stuff.
Most likely there is a button to start into bios. Turn off secure boot. Start from usb and install some Linux.

Just hold shift while clicking poweroff button in start. Go to UEFI settings and switch to legacy mode.
Then you will be able to access BIOS at startup with delete, or whatever there is.

This. Use something like i3 or xfce on that piece of shit too, if you want to be able to actually accomplish anything.
