Beast of luck with finding one. I think you'll be pushing it.

If you have the win7 disc you always have the option of installing it as a virtual machine on win10. I have done that on my win8 laptop so I can still use some of my old legacy software that doesn't have win 10 support.
Useful, if you have a powerful enough system.
My Lenovo notebook is nowhere near capable enough to consider trying that.
And even if you did set up a VM, wouldn't you still run into the Win7 support being nuked in 2020 problem?
