    Not sure what your asking here? You need a restore disk? You can create one with Alien Respawn provided you have the original partition intact. You can also use the Windows download tool to get a fresh copy and install with your product key, just make sure you select the right version.

    Drivers can be found on Alienware's website.

    As 3rd option you can also download Dell's Restore & Recovery file below, however your laptop has to be in warranty to use the service and it will be locked to your service tag.

    Personally I would rather stick with the windows download tool and do a fresh install.
