Usually the operating system is on a separate partition especially for reinstallation when things go pearshape.

Some models used the SHIFT 0 when booting up to get to the windows installation. If you have deleted ALL partitions and reformatted then you have a real problem. Call DELL if you have not deleted partitions and find the specific s]sequence of accessing the partition for your model.

Hello

OK, the problem is that you will need to install the older operating system before you install the new one, you have done this the wrong way around.

If you do it correctly, you will have a boot menu which will let you choose from which system you want to boot.

Kind regards
