Lost Home Basic Windows 7 installation disk

Lost Windows 7 installation disc home base but they have the product key. Can you provide me with a link to install iso?

For 5 years, Microsoft made it fairly easy for users of the Windows 7 operating system to get reinstall media. If you have lost your support disc or installation retail collection; either it has been damaged or defective; You can download a copy of the edition that you have licensed from a membership site called Digital River. More recently, Microsoft ended the availability to reinstall media that you can download as a. File ISO in Digital River, which is a digital reproduction of an optical disc.

It was particularly convenient for people who could not easily get the manufacturer's recovery media, did not want to pay the fees required to get or preferred a clean configuration without the software packaged manufacturers or even a recovery partition does not work. It's easy to use, all you had to do was reinstall and reactivate using the product key located on the certificate of authenticity and download all the drivers on the manufacturers website.

Given that this option is no longer available, what are your options? See the article for more details:

    No network adapter driver is available after reinstalling Windows Vista installation disk... Unable to connect to the network

    Hello

    Know what type of network card you have and download the drivers of its supplier.

    It doesn't matter what it is always a good idea before re-install/upgrade to log on to the computer support page, download independent drivers from there and put them on a flash drive.

    In general, yes your reinstall Dell drive is identical to a disc to install Windows genuine.

    The differences are not applicable for the repair procedure. (FYI - Toshiba and HP Vista, the disks cannot be used to perform a repair install, while gateway disks will work for Vista)

    You must clean reinstall Windows 7

    He was a popular workaround to versions of change , but has not been working lately, so it may have been prevented.  But you need to back up your files, because the files should always be supported against failure hard drive if you care for them at all, and especially during the repair or reinstall operations.  So if you do this, you might as well do the Reinstall much higher.

  • Question about Dell OEM: SLP Windows 7 Installation disk domestic; can it be installed and activated on other computers from Dell?

    I bought a Dell installation disk and I want to use it to install a better version of Windows on my Dell PC. I have windows Vista and I want to use it to update my OS Windows7 Home Premium. However, the license type is SLP:OEM and no detail... not sure what SLP: OEM means... I thought that the OS discs are the same. Someone told me no retail editions are not suitable for a new OS, but I'm confused. The disc says, Windows 7 Home premium 64-bit, but didn't holograms who have all MS OS disks and the disk is labeled for use with a Dell system only, if the means it will work very well on my Dell PC? The label does not which brand or model this disc is for, but said only for the Dell PC which is my PC. I'm assuming, the disk won't work on all Dells, maybe someone can offer suggestions, any help is much appreciated. Thank you!

    I have a few other questions about Windows 7, can I ask you about this on your Web site? Do not know how to contact you on your website.

  • Reinstalling Windows without installation disks

    Let me clarify some things that I think are made:

    Laptop = ideapad z575 which is a windows 7 64 bit computer.

    Windows wouldn't boot because it has an error since avg and update wondows - avg seem to be ashamed that their driver is the last show at startup but remove avg then showed another driver and it all points to a depth of problem.
    In short, I feel that a reinstallation is the best way forward.

    I saved my data sisters so happy to do a quick format and reinstall of windows 7 - have the serial number sticker, but no disk I do not think that it shipped in all.

    I didn't modify all partitions, but using a utility disk in the back that I was able to access it via the standard boot drive I can put another active partition... now to return back I had to create a bootable utility that I made from USB, it also allows me to inspect the readers through a windows interface.

    So I am here and able to do a lot in the back through my USB. I saw and was able to run a recovery program that is located on one of the partitions. But he told me that something was friends with readers and I think it's because of my defining a different partition as the only active.

    What is the next best step for me it feels exaggerated do not use partition lenovo gave to reinstall windows, hoping I wouldn't need browse and find/download all the drivers, etc... and not to mention updates of bios etc...

    I can say that I have the following discs and back access and access through GUI.

    When I say access via the GUI I found that I was able to do this system revoery options screen when he says click to search the drivers an interface will appear and where I can the eyebrows of all partitions and USB - which was pretty cool. The button says "Load Drivers" and from there, I can choose the partition and try and run one touch back.

    When he first boot from USB it looks like as it is by default and selects a Boot called drive (X and the default folder is the Windows/System32 folder.)

    Here are the disks or partitions I can see and explore

    Lenovo (C 27.5 Free GB GB 28.9 contains just request files and drivers.)

    Local disk (E it looks like there's a Windows installation on it that I can see my sistsers files in the my documents (I got these by using XCOPY to get the complete recursive directory and do be careful if you use just "copy" as it will ignore folders and files inside!)) For me, it's the normal bootable disc and one that is broken.
    349 GB free of 421 GB so this seems to confirm that it is the main trunk and use the partition.

    Local disk (D only 166 199MB MB no said no files and folders at least since the GUI - perhaps back can show me something...)

    Start (X 29.1 MB of free space of 31.5 MB I don't think it's my USB (NOT confirmed) the last modified date is 2009! he seems to have a windows installation - is possible to reinstall from that?) I tried to click on a setup.exe found here but it does not work via the GUI as it comes to find specific drivers is not not a general file Explorer.

    I have 2 drives USB also visible to help me. I got the above files to another on the ERD. And the 3rd is the CD. If these are known as CDROM (F, Reapir disk (G: I did that) and 32 GB Flash (H)

    Maybe I need to burn an iso install wondows in the latter. Who can be a last resort.

    What is perhaps a few right steps to take right now. I think I should be able to change my active partition and get a contact working again by reversing what I was doing back disk partition - don't remember the name... a few trial and error required.

    But I hope that with this info I can get my sisters laptop that works again. I think also that if I took it to a local shop they will simply be to format and reinstall windows 7 and drivers do not care to take the time to maybe get to a situation of factory. It is because the baisc economy. I don't want to go that route because I know I can do what I want to just make the best way.

    Knew nothing about this function - will keep in mind for the next window of time slows down or does not start - throw his toys out of the pram etc... suffering from windows computer slow? You are not alone

    In any case, I think I've sorted it. Hope that C is not too fragmented because I chose to not be complicated with a format and keep the original scores. In this way its just easier.

    Wifi that I had remembered to disable in the BIOS.
