Hi all...

Is it possible to install Windows 8.1 to Acer AiO aspire z5801 ? At first I wanted to install windows 10 but after I read several post acer z5801 isn't possible to have windows 10 so I'd like to upgrade from windows 7 to 8.1

Thank you

Brad

    Hi Brad,

    Short answer: yes, it is possible.

    However, please note that Windows 8.1 reached End of Life (EOL) some time ago, and Microsoft no longer provides a public download of the Windows 8.1 ISO. As a result, you may need to rely on third-party websites to obtain the installation media. Please proceed with caution, as these files are not hosted or verified by Microsoft.

    For detailed instructions on downloading and installing Windows 8.1, please refer to this guide: 3 Ways to create USB bootable media to install Windows 8.1 (2026) - Pureinfotech.

    Please follow the steps carefully and back up any important data before making changes to your system.
