Its for vista, but will work for win7.

Is this still the Toshiba factory preinstall with all of the bloatware that throttles Win7 native performance? If so I would do what most tech enthusiasts do and get the vastly superior Clean Reinstall - Factory OEM Windows 7. Everything you need is in the blue link.
