It is possible to downgrade your Lenovo IdeaPad N581 from Windows 8 to Windows 7. Just install the Windows 7 Operating System which will replace the Windows 8. The most important thing that you have to consider is the driver software. You can download the Windows 7 driver software for this laptop here:
