Problem

You are looking to get an older version of Windows (XP, Vista, 7...) for your computer from ECI or any service that ECI provides.

Solution

At this time, the only service we provide to give software is through Microsoft Azure Dev Tools for Teaching, which will not offer older versions of Windows for the following reasons:

  • Older version of Windows is no longer supported by Microsoft
  • Newer hardware is being designed not to support or allow the installation of unsupported Windows version (Windows 10 is considered the supported version of Windows for desktops and Windows Server 2016 is the recommended version for server)

ECI also cannot supply older version of Windows as the versions we have are for the Instructional Lab Use only.
