    Hi Guys,

    I just bought a Samsung NP700Z7C-S01US from Cowboom without any OS installed. All I got is the laptop itself with the power adapter, no os recovery disk or anything else. How do I go about getting Windows 7 Home Premium or Windows 8 reinstalled. Can someone please point me in the right direction? I really appreciate your help.

    I already tried the Windows 7 Recovery Disc method. The 1TB seagate hdd is blank. There is no recovery image/partition present.

    Thank you so much. This is exactly what I was looking for. Just got Windows 7 Home Premium installed and activated following the guide in hardforum. Now I'm re-installing the drivers.
