Download All Preinstaller from following URL https://blogs.technet.microsoft.com/meamcs/2012/12/26/install-and-download-sharepoint-2013-prerequisites-offline-manually/ I got this post from John blog, below is an original reference: http://www.disruptivei.com/Blogg/Inl%C3%A4gg/6/Install-SharePoint-2013-on-Windows-7-8-8-1 Video presentation https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HZZkgu0BiGk  (Just make sure run launcher.exe as mentioned in below steps) If you want it "close to the metal" without installing a server OS now you can, you decide for yourself if it is a good idea ;-) It is COMPLETELY unsupported by MS and should only be used for a local development/demo machine. ​First you should download SharePoint foundation 2013 with SP1​ or SharePoint Server 2013 with SP1 .
