Clean Install - Lenovo OneKey recovery
Thanks for helping so far,
As you guys suggested, I am able to copy the files into USB storage. I tried Lenovo OneKey recovery. Even though I have the OEM DISKMAP as shown above, it did not work. That too went to black screen with cursor in the middle.
Is there a way to make Lenovo OneKey recovery work?
Is it possible to use the Lenovo recovery partition in above DISKMAP to reinstall Windows 7, instead OEM ISO download?
I did search in this forum for Clean Install & found

I used links provided in 1st page of above. I am getting
1) Option 1

What is the revised source this community use to download win 7 ISO?Windows 7 used to be available for public download on servers owned by Digital River, Microsoft's service provider for e-commerce. As of February 2015, these downloads have been pulled. "Free" access to the OS disk images is somewhat limited now, but a few options remain.
What is the size of USB storage required to work with this download?
If you update these links in 1st page, it will help others.
Thanks for your guidance.
Do you want me to continue in this thread for this install or open a new thread?
What do you guys think?
