te100 :
why do you need one? Just use your genuine 7 dvd.
why does it matter why he needs it? Many people who buy a computer with it installed don't have the disk. Why would you waste a post asking a stupid question? Does the reason why help in any way to find a copy? Useless you are. If you can't answer the question then don't respond. I have the same issue, my windows 7 won't start, startup repair stalls and won't start, no safe mode will work, boot disk won't work.
