Aspire V15 OS Downgrade

Does anyone know if I can properly downgrade to Windows 7 or even Windows 8.1 on my Aspire V15. I personally dislike Windows 10 and want to downgrade.

I've tried downgrading to Windows 7 but it just freezes on the Starting Windows sequence and doesn't continue.

I've tried downgrading to Windows 8.1 but I have issues downloading the touch pad drivers and other drivers.

Can anyone know how to pass the Starting Windows part or find the correct drivers for Win8.1?

Edit: I've tried installing Linux Mint and Ubuntu with no luck either. When the installer is done, it reboots and says No Bootable Device detected.

Hi RazorXblade

For Windows 7, in the first instance, enter your BIOS/UEFI mode by continually pressing/tapping F2 immediately on power on. Select the boot option & change the Boot mode to "Legacy Bios". If you have the option, also disable secure boot. Then press F10 to save & exit.
