    Alright so I accidentally quick formatted my hard drive on my gateway id49c07u and lost everything. :( So I downloaded a windows 7 torrent and put the license key in from my laptop. That is what im running on right now. After the quick format I messed with it and made it worse. I need the gateway recovery management in order to restore my computer to factory settings. Gateway wants to charge me $20 for one and I am positive mine is not stored anywhere on my computer. I have tried everything. If someone could hook me up with it that would be awesome. All I need is an iso file i can burn to a disc. Thanks in advance. :)

    Computer Specifications: Intel Core i3 Processor, 500 GB SATA HD, 4 GB DDR3 RAM.

    Hmmmmm! Not sure. Don't think so since I bought it in early 2009.

    I believe it would have to be windows 7 to work on mine. Thanks for trying though. I really appreciate it.
