It does not include a recovery disk. There is a recovery partition on the hard drive. You can make your own recovery disk with an included program.

Neither. It does, however, allow you to make one image recovery disc in case the windows stops working properly. Go to settings->backup->and choose one from those options

My ALW17-8751sLV came with a Windows 7 64bit recovery disc and you have 4 RAM slots.

Yes, but you will need the product code for the OS on the unit if your using a recovery disc. If you have the original install disc, then the code should be on it or on the side of the computer.

It didn't come with any recovery disk, but since this computer comes with windows 8 it offers a easy to use recovery/restore tool under the settings app. you can reload your whole o.s. like new.

It should work fine. I didn't use the installation disk. I plugged it in and my computer did the rest.

The laptop I received had Windows 7 Home Premium installed - no disk or recovery partition.

Yes it will work just fine. I just tried it on my old Windows XP machine. After you plug it in, give it a couple of minutes to download the driver and recognize the drive.

Shawn Slater is correct you have to make the windows seven recovery disks yourself. it is very easy

I have not tried that particular restore but I have tried from motherboard to motherboard (mostly ASUS or Gigabyte) during hardware upgrades and RARELY got it to work. Occasionally, I would get a decent restore but had to boot into safe mode and monkey around with Fixboot and SFC to get things to boot properly.

I have not used it for that purpose, but it should. The whole point of the recovery disk is to return your Windows operating system to you. You may still have to repair problems after recovery, but you will have a fighting chance of avoiding a reinstallation of Windows and a subsequent loss of data. The recovery disk has saved me from disaster several times. Let us know how that works.

It does not, no. You can get a software recovery disc, but I believe HP wants like an extra $25 for it. The recovery software is on the hard disk the unit ships with.

The machine comes preloaded with Windows 7 Professional 64bit already. You're good to go. The supplied recovery media is for Windows 8, however. Re-installing Windows 7 will be difficult. I'd recommend preforming a complete system backup to an external harddrive as soon as you get the machine.
