I hope I've selected the right category for my question. Please forgive me in advance. I'm a regular user of the forums but not a regular poster. Thanks!

I have 2 Toshiba Satellite C50D-B Laptops at work which came with Windows 8. I need windows 7 for compatibility with our parts management and service management software. Is it possible to downgrade these to windows 7. I'm worried the computer is purpose built for Windows 8 and that not all of the Windows 7 drivers will be compatible with it.

Thanks in advance for your help!!

Well, did you check the Toshiba Driver Support page?

To me, after a quick look, it seems there are Windows 7 drivers available for your laptop. Go through the list of drivers to ensure you have ones for all the components you need.
