Windows 7 Direct Download Links


Windows 7 Home Premium x86 SP1 U (media refresh)

Do I need this one, or Windows 7 Home Premium x86 SP1 (old)



Whats the difference ? ?

So I can't use any of those disc's I made to reinstall Windows, because to be honest it will take forever to download 2.4gb, as I don't have highspeed where I'm at I have to go over to a relatives ?

If I can just download through Bit Torrent it will be much easier so that I don't have to worry losing internet connection or having to be on the internet for 2 days straight

Not a good idea. The torrent won't be any faster and it's already packaged with an illegal loader so you don't know what other surprises are seeded in it. Use the official links to keep safe and legal.

The latest official installer is in Step 1 of the tutorial so I dont' know why you're off on Digital River or torrents already. Stick with the steps in the tutorial if you want a perfect install.

I just want to be able to install Windows 7 to a new HDD thats all, but there is no way I can be on the internet for that long without losing a connection or completely slowing the internet to a point it would be unusable and would probably take 3 days just to download.

I didn't want to use the "loader" I do have a legal key I just want to be able to download in 8 hour periods maybe once or twice a week.

I see. I'd look into something like Firefox Download manager so you can start and stop the download at will.

If you go the torrent route look for clean copy with nothing added, read the comments to confirm this.

No most of the internet in this area a all the same, thats the problem at maybe 60-70 kbps it would take too long, plus others would be on the internet and it would be used most of the day so it could easily slow down to 20 kbps or less.

Thats why I was asking about my discs that I create on wether or not they would work because I didn't want to have to download something for that much time, because I know others will want to use it and it was slow it down so much
