I don't like Windows 8 either. You must reinstall Windows to achieve your goal.

You can downgrade given that you have a valid Windows 7 key.

Download Windows genuine copies off here:

Use this tool to create a boot disk

Alternatively you can try using this tool to burn Ubuntu or Windows with:

Second alternative:

Clone your hard drive using Clonezilla

Here is a good guide that has worked for me:
