    Hi guys,

    I would like to know if there is an official, or at least a legal .iso file of windows 7 professional 64bits with SP1 integrated (with nothing else - no bloatware, drivers, programs ...)?

    If yes, can you give me the link ?

    If no I will try to make my own with RT7 lite.

    Thanks.

    hmm ... you can get an official windows 7 iso & a windows 7 SP1 iso ... & just install them one after another for the same effect :D ... you can also save your laptop license with ABR tools & use it on the version of windows you installed & say bye bye to bloatware

    Yeah but I'd like 1 iso, in order to have a fast way of reinstalling W7 with a usb stick ^^

    Edit : Here is the a page of msdn where there are links for official windows 7 copies with SP1 integrated, but it requires an msdn account :
    http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/subscriptions/downloads/default.aspx?pv=36:350

    Maybe there's a way to get these iso with having an account ?

    Hmm ... I tried to search a little bit ... it seems - rather odd - that there is no 1 iso for both officially - there is a leaked one which I wouldn't touch with a 10 feet pole - I find it very strange that Microsoft didn't come up with one already ... or maybe im a lousy searcher :D

    Microsoft never provided direct download links to Windows 7 RTM.

    All the links were either leaked through torrents or from people in Digital River.

    So Microsoft provided W7 isos with SP1 integrated only for msdn subscribers (link in edited post), and not for the public ?

    MSDN and Technet allow paying members to download the ISO file which is an image of the Windows 7 DVD. Legally is it distributed on DVD's either in the retail or OEM versions.
