Windows 8 on my HP works slower than my 12 year old stylistic tablet with XP pro.
I don't want a bunch of reasons why I should like windows 8. I want to know if I can load windows 7 or XP on my HP 2000 laptop?

Yeah, that a netbook, it would still be slow in windows 7. And they don't offer any XP or Win 7 drivers, so don't try that. Return it if you still can.

Thanks, I was afraid that would be the answer. I can not return it because too much time has gone by since I bought it although it is still under warranty. What do you think about changing to Linux?

Thank you friend! It is useless as it is. I live in an area of the USA with almost no internet access All this Windows 8 OS wants to do is try and open apps even though I have tried to disable them. In it's attempts to make contact with apps and clouds it freezes. I even have trouble answering posts with out going back and filling in the missed letters as I type.....HP blames Microsoft and Microsoft blames HP.....
