Need clarification on windows 7 recovery disk.

Ok so my fathers Dell studio desktop pc running windows 7 home premium 64-bit came with a windows 7 re installation disk. I was wondering if I could use this same disk to re install windows 7 on my inspiron 1545 laptop if I ever needed to or will the disk only work for the dell studio desktop? If I really had to id create the recovery disk but that takes longer. Also could I get the recovery disk to reinstall windows using this link? https://support.dell.com/support/topics/global.aspx/support/dellcare/en/backupcd_form Seems that it would work. I already sent in a request just in case. I just want a disk to clean install windows without bloat and all that extra stuff.

 

Hi,

Since you already have the Windows 7 DVD shipped from Dell, you may use the same for both the Studio Desktop and the Inspiron laptop as well. You can surely request for the backup disk by submitting a request form using the link that you have mentioned.
In case you are reinstalling the operating system using the Windows 7 DVD on the Inspiron 1545, please use the link mentioned below to download the drivers, specifically for this system model.

Please use the link mentioned below to register for “My Dell Downloads”, so you can download some of the pre-installed applications as well.
