You may find that you can’t get device drivers for Windows 7 on a recent (last few years) laptop. Like network, audio, fingerprint ID, camera, etc. Microsoft put a lot of pressure on device manufacturers to only provide support for Windows 10 after about 2016.

I had only a little trouble figuring out the minimal drivers to get my Ryzen 5 to talk to Windows 7. There’s tons of resources, but it will obviously differ by manufacturer and mobo.
