    Windows 8.1 Pro has the Hyper-V feature included as standard. It just need to be enabled but does require a suitable CPU with VT-x. The i5 processor i that laptop should have this feature but best to confirm it if this appeals to you.

    With this you could install 7 in a virtual machine and have the best of both worlds ? You can also take snapshots of the virtual machine which is handy for recovering from a failure.

    Hi Zener,
    I'd prefer to have Win7 32 bit running properly on it as I have my own personal laptop too.
