At first, let me say hello and thank you in advance for reading this and maybe trying to help me.
Yesterday I downgraded my PC from Win8 to Win7 (as the title should suggest) and ran in a little bit of a problem: The installer for 7 didn't let me install, before I deleted each and every partition of my old hard drive setup, which was not a big deal for me.
But when I booted up the new OS, there were two issues (which, I think, are related)
1) The System detects only one monitor at a time (I had a 3 monitor setup before, as the PC was used for music production), but will always detect one if it is connected from the start up. So if there is one or more connected, no matter if via VGA, DVI or HDMI, it selects one of them and won't detect another one.
2) (Which is much more severe) The drivers for multiple devices do not install (properly), which woudn't be a problem, if the wLAN and LAN-Connector weren't in this group, so that I can't acess the Internet from the PC to search for the drivers manually
After a little bit of research I came to the conclusion, that the original drivers could have been saved on one of the partitions that I had to delete. I am literally panicking a little bit here, I am an semi-professional music producer and have two projects until next week, and I can't install any software I need without a running internet connection.
So, please tell me, what can I do to get this machine up and running?
Thanks in advance for your help, I really appreciate each and every try to help me out!
Please excuse any mistakes, I am a foreign speaker ^^
