no idea, I haven't tried that.
Update your PC's USB and chipset drivers:
1). Download Intel Chipset Software from here
2). Extract the setup using 7zip
3). Open Device Manager and manually update drivers of USB (under Universal Serial Bus controllers) and Chipset (under System devices)
4). Try to update other drivers as well by visiting their official websites.

Windows 8.1 with Update 1 is better than Windows 7, Tell your friend to learn Windows 8
In case your friend really want to have Windows 7 than he/she has to enable legacy support in BIOS and completely format your hard drive using Windows 7 DVD/Pendrive
ohh okk so theres no performance difference between 7 and 8.1?like is it worth downgrading or staying on 8.1

Following are some queries for Y510P:
How's the after sales support of Lenovo?
Do they repair the faulty parts or do they replace the parts like DELL?
If parts are repaired, how much time is taken by Lenovo for same?
How's the quality/stability of repaired parts?
Do they offer accidental damage protection in extended warranty?
