    @bbaker6212 There's no driver support for windows 7. Give up on that idea. Go with 10 Enterprise LTSC 2019.

    Well the screen, keyboard, and touchpad all work when Live-USB booting via the USB 3.0 port. And the same WiFi NIC has Win7 driver/support via a Dell Notebook model.
    So maybe it's possible, just not supported from Lenovo. A headache at least to be sure.

    I have one dumb question to ask, and because it is related to w7 installation, I will ask it here. Please be gentle :p

    Let's say I create a new w7 image, e.g. by slipstreaming all the updates with simplix or by downsizing it with ntlite. Will that give me a fresh install.wim that can replace the existing one inside the iso and still be compatible with the rest of the files in there?

    I have a set of isos stored on my samba server and when I make a fresh installation, I "write" the one I need to a usb stick with rufus. If the above statement is correct, can I use the fresh install.wim just by writing that on the usb stick and removing the old one?

    Yes. Same with creating an iso, as long as you're still using a .wim and not a .esd file.

    I can assure you that the iso's by @GezoeSloog are genuine msft iso's and the checksum can be verified.

    You can find the full SVF repo list in his signature.
