Hi i'm new here,So here is my problem i bought new laptop Asus k550vx in the box i found driver disk only for win 10 64x .I also found the model in asus official site when i tried to download there is only for win 10 64bit available.
Is that mean that i can't install win 7 or 8.1? and i can install only win 10 64bit ?

yeah, that's pretty much how it works bro. You may be able to install and run 7 or 8, but you may or may not run into issues with various pieces of hardware... That being said, it's been shown through multiple tests on various sites that Windows 10 performs better than both 7 and 8, whether gaming or doing other tasks.

If you are adamant about using 7 or 8, it is usually possible to find the drivers for everything inside your laptop on the net. The chipset, video cards, networks cards, all usually have the full coverage of windows drivers on the manufacturers web site. It is simply not TESTED on your laptop. I would learn to work with windows 10. windows 7 and 8 are only secondary on hardware makers radars.
