Re: Recover data from old laptop harddisk
If you have another machine, install 5.7 there, get it running, shut it down, move the newly installed mysql data folder to another folder, replace it with a copy of the data folder from the backup, delete iblogfile*, get it running, then follow

Otherwise I think the safest bet would be to uninstall 8.0 entirely, install 5.7, proceed as above to copy in your 5.7 folders & files, get it running, fix any errors, then follow
