Re: Windows 7 Recovery Disc
Or if you are running Windows 7 burn it yourself and it will actually be tailored to your machine.
Are we allowed torrent links to non-confirmed files?

Re: Windows 7 Recovery Disc
Torrents are not an issue, lots of legal files come as torrents. We will though look into the legality of the files themselves

Looking further into this the torrent is not warez and doesn't break any other rules so is perfectly linkable from this site
From the linked to website

Thankfully, Microsoft seems to have realized this problem, and have thankfully made a recovery disc for this purpose. It contains the contents of the Windows 7 DVD's "recovery center," as we've come to refer to it. It cannot be used to install or reinstall Windows 7, and just serves as a Windows PE interface to recovering your PC. Technically, one could re-create this installation media with freely-downloadable media from Microsoft (namely the Microsoft WAIK kit, a multi-gigabyte download); but it's damn-decent of Microsoft to make this available to Windows' users who might not be capable of creating such a thing on their own. You can make your own copy from Windows 7 Ultimate Edition, but now you have an easier alternative.
NeoSmart Technologies is hosting a copy of the Windows 7 Recovery Disc for your convenience.

Yes you can put the disc in a windows vista computer - no it would not turn it into a windows 7 computer.
