downgraded from Windows 10 back to 7 and now can't boot Windows
hi guys,
I upgraded from win 7 to 10 recently and got really annoyed by how slow/buggy it is and decided to revert back to win 7.
BUT
an error occurred during that process ( can't remember what error it was) and now I can't boot into windows at all (including safe mode).
After hitting f8 and get into system recovery, it wouldn't automatically fix the issue.
1) what is wrong? What can I do now?
2) if the only option left is to reinstall win7, how can I back up the existing files on the existing drive? would a fresh install format my current hard drive or at least C:/?
thanks guys
