XPS 13 9350 and Win 7 (again)

Trying to downgrade from Win 10 to 7, and I can get the computer to boot off the USB, and start the installation. The problem arises when I get the error about not finding the CD/DVD drivers. 


I have tried switching the USB drive to another port, turned off secure boot, turned off UEFI (tried it on), legacy, blah blah... 

Good thread here, but I still have the issue

Has anyone a workaround I have not tried?

Resolved it with a different version of Win 7. Can't tell you why, but I created a new boot USB, and it worked as planned. I guess there was a bug in the previous install file (even though I have used t before).

The Dell driver pack had everything I needed as well
