I am using ACT! at my office one of the computers has windows 7 and one has Windows 8.1. It works on both systems and they are able to synchronize with each other. So yes, it does work on Windows 8.

Factory default mine was windows 8, but I upgraded to 8.1. For me It's better than 8. If you don't want to upgrade, you can stay in Windows 8.

well I guess use the migration software that comes with it or manually do it as per win 7, nothing special for 8 methinks...

Went in with no problem. But I had to get used to 8, what a different OS. Hope all goes well with your install.

I have Windows 8 and had zero issues with it so Windows 7 should be fine :]

Windows 8 doesn't do a lot of things. It's not a good operating system just yet, revert to 7.

I do not know that you can swap out 8 to 7, But check out the updated Windows 8.1, as it will be nearly the same as 7. I have not done this yet as I am liking the 8 version now. I do know that you will love this computer as I have had mine for many months now.

Windows 7 is installed. There's $14.95 deal for a do it yourself upgrade to 8, but if you've never done a similar thing before it can be a challenge.

I think you will have to buy a copy and reimage it. I have been very happy with Windows 8. You might want to try it for a while before investing in 7. Good luck!

Hi there...I think its hard to go windows7...of course we can do it but...I suggest to stick to the windows 8 better. but before you install...try to download factory recovery DVD first in case.... If it is external..of course you can...anyway...good luck with your customization of your system.

I don't have a clue since I don't use Windows 8. With my new computer I paid a premium to get it with Windows 7.

No Clue, I use 7 on my puters... As a caveat, i use it on a system that has win 7 preinstalled, never saw any reason to upgrade to 8, so don't know
