[foreveryoung_97]

I purchased a laptop from Rent a center and stupidly installed windows 8 consumer preview onto it and can't get rid of it now I know there's a way but I'm a retard at this, please help!

sure you can install windows 7 back on it but you will need a Windows disk

What kind of laptop is it? Most recent laptops have a recovery partition that you can boot into to restore the original operating system. Check the manufacturer's site for instructions on how to do the restore.
