I can't Install windows 7 on my aspire ES1-431... I installed windows 8.1, But I couldn't Install windows 7.

I just ran into some "Load Driver" problem. 

It says:

"A required CD/DVD drive device driver is missing. If you have a driver floppy disk, CD, DVD, or USB flash drive, please insert it now.

Note: If the Windows installation media is in the CD/DVD drive, you can safely remove it for this step."

 

I choose "ok" then another error messege apears it says:

"No device drivers were found. Make sure that the installation media contains the correct drivers, and then click OK."

--------------------------------------------------

I'm trying to install windows 7 home premium.

with usb written by Rufus

--------------------------------------------------

I installed Windows 7 on diffrent computer with same iso, the same method, and the same weather conditions.

I just don't know why this problem popups now?

Please any help will be appreciated.

    I installed windows 7 by doing this:

    1. downloaded windows 7 x64 iso.

    2. downloaded wireless driver from here.

    3. downloaded Driver Booster.

    4. installed windows by extracting the iso and using the setup file inside.

    5. went to window.old folder and installed wireless driver.

    6. ran Driver Booster and installed the rest of drivers.

    Try switching UEFI to Legay mode in BIOS.

    Sorry for the late reply, I have asked you to try Legacy mode and not UEFI.

    in bios you should have also a feature you can enable to make appear F12 menu in boot time.

     

    when this feature is enabled reboot computer and press F12 at boot to select the device you want to boot with and choose your DVD
