How does one douche Windows 8 on a newly purchased HP?

Question

I have a new HP with windows 8 and I need to start over again.  Please, anyone out there knowing how to do this, would be greatly appreciated!!  As a side note, still want to keep Windows 8, I just want to start all over again and it's proving difficult navigating through unfamiliar territory.

The HP W8 laptop has a built in system recovery partition to use to put it back to factory also a program to use to create the operating system recovery disc set for the laptop. All instructions or at the below links. If your HP has a optical drive create the disc set not the USB recovery drive.

Download classic shell and install, then reboot. Then it should look more like win 7 and be easier to navigate.  http://sourceforge.net/projects/classicshell/
