Windows 7: Trying to clean restore windows 7 with DVD+R

I have an Acer aspire 5336 laptop and the other day i was trying to do some modifications to my android device and while i was doing it my laptop completely froze so i turned it off with the power button and turned it back on and it takes about 30 minutes to get on the boot screen which is not normal and after it finally loaded i could only move the mouse and i couldn't even go into the settings. i tried to restore it with going into backup and restore but it wont finish loading. I want to factory restore my computer with a disc but i don't have the windows disc because it didn't come with the laptop. So i want to make a windows 7 Home premium disc but i don't want to lose my serial number and have a screen popup which says this is not a genuine copy. So what do i do guys?

If you have a recovery partition....

On 1st boot, the screen will show you which key to push to start the recovery process. This will put it back to factory settings.

Your activation key is on a sticker on the back of the laptop, you will use that to reactivate windows. If you want to make a disc, then here ya go.

Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7

That sticker is faded and I don't want to risk losing my license. Will this way keep my genuine copy?

If you can`t read your key, then you are going to have to try and do a factory restore. If windows came preinstalled (OEM) then you can`t use the key you find in windows to do a clean install. It will not activate windows. Only the key on the sticker will activate a clean install of the same version you have installed now.

Goin to bed I`m beat

No I did not make any kind of recovery discs and whenever i try to run start up repair or anything it would take about 30 minutes to load and get on the windows 7 wallpaper nothing will happen afterwards and i end up turning of the computer. what i would like is to maybe torrent a ISO file of windows 7 home premium the part I'm confused is i want to keep my key but I'm not sure

I just gave you a list of Troubleshooting steps which provides in Step 5 the ISO and tool to burn a Windows 7 installation DVD for your licensed version, to use for repair or if necessary reinstall. Did you even bother reading it?

Test RAM - Test with Memtest86+ which will boot itself for 5-6 passes or overnight.
