Latitude 7200 2-in-1 running Windows 7 shows an "INTERNAL_POWER_ERROR."
I have a Dell Latitude 7200 2-in-1, which originally came with Windows 11. I decided to install Windows 7 using a DVD disc, but after installation, it refuses to boot and shows a blue screen with the INTERNAL_POWER_ERROR code.
Here's what I've tried so far:
1.Entering safe mode – didn't work (BSOD).
2.Resetting the settings in UEFI – didn't help.
3.Changing settings in UEFI (TPM 2.0, Secure Boot, etc.) – didn't help.
4.Formatting the SSD and reinstalling Windows 7 – didn't help.
Can anyone offer assistance? Is it even possible to install Windows 7 on my laptop?

There's no support for anything older than Windows 10 on this system.
The question is why you'd want to run an out of date, end of life OS on this hardware? Windows 7 has not seen security updates in over four years at this point, so it's totally insecure online.
