Windows 7 ISO downloads links down again for 5 days

[SIW2]

Can't say I noticed any not bootable iso files. You would want the media refresh SP1 (U) iso.

( I think one or two of the non SP1 iso are not bootable - strangely. )

Get the right bit version. Any edition will do. they are all the same apart from the sources\ei.cfg file, which can be removed with winisoutils - Windows ISO Disc Image Utilities

Just completed the download of #59186 Pro SP1 U from DR. The difference between it and the MS Store edition is it is fractionally larger due to the "U" add on. Download time for the 3.09Gigs was ~18 minutes@25MBS.

That's an RTM version, scroll down to the X17-59186.iso

Will post up something to convert Home Prem to Pro and Ult.

Also Pro to Home Prem and ULT.

No MS files will be in it. Just the differences in ei.cfg, lables and time stamps.

Resulting iso will match msdn hashes.

You need either 7x64 Pro X17-59186.iso

OR

7x64 Home Premium X17-59186.iso

If you have used ei.cfg switcher, you need to switch it back to the original condition.

There you go.

It is very easy.

1. If you start with Home Premium X17-58997.iso obviously. use this folder:



2. You will see these files inside:



3. Copy your X17-58997.iso into the folder :



4. Then rt click and run as admin to create a new iso, either Pro or Ult. A command window will tell it is working, it takes about a minute.

X17-58997.iso = en_windows_7_home_premium_with_sp1_x64_dvd_u_676549.iso

X17-59186.iso = en_windows_7_professional_with_sp1_x64_dvd_u_676939

X17-59465.iso = en_windows_7_ultimate_with_sp1_x64_dvd_u_677332.iso

 

[SIW2]

59463 is back on DR. That is the en x86 Ult sp1 (u)

You would use the above if you wanted different editions with an exact hash match to the originals.
That way you only need to d/l one of them.

According to Heidoc's Jan Krohn, MS is transferring the ISO's from Digital River to Azure servers.

That is an interesting development. Does give MS greater control in the distribution. It also allows them to directly monitor who is downloading IMO.

As of noon today (4/1) Ultimate 32-bit is working for me (no, it's not an April fool). At 1.1 meg, I hope it finishes before they go down again. Still have to get 64-bit.

... At 1.1 meg, I hope it finishes before they go down again....

1.1 meg? From MSDN d/l

I'm guessing he's referring to his download speed not the size of the download.

No more calls please, we have a winner.

Can someone please help a n00b? I've been procrastinating on doing what I guess is called "Clean Reinstall" for quite some time but hadn't yet when I saw that the ISO's weren't available anymore & I freaked out! Now that they're back I'd really like to have one on hand but I'm soooo lost on the whole thing.
These are free right?
I'm running Home Premium 64-bit SP1 ( click on My Specs)
Once I get to the Digital Rivers page what do I click on to download for my PC?
Thanks.

Thanks Rich. I just need to download it for now & can do the rest later when I'm ready, right?
