It does not come with any software CD's, just what is pre-loaded on the Hard drive. ASUS dose provide a pre-loaded utility to back your system up to DVD. It will take about 5 DVDs to completely back up everything. Then you have all of your rescue software, not just windows.

This one has Windows 7 Home Premium 64-bit only, no Windows 8 disks. If you are looking for Windows 7/Windows 8 setup, see model 20B20011US. It has Windows 7 Pro 64-bit preloaded and it comes with Windows 8 Pro recovery disks.

No it does not. You can go to Settings > Change PC Settings > Update and recovery > Recovery and make a recovery disc though.

I ordered mine installed with Windows 7 ("downgrade" option). It came with disks for both operating systems and (I think) disks for recovering both operating systems.

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.

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

No, it does not include recovery discs. However, after you get the computer up and running, there is a way for you to burn them yourself. It takes 3 DVDs (many more CDs). They warn that you can only burn one set of recovery discs, so don't lose them.

We include the original Dell Win 7 Pro 64 bit restore media for recovery or later installation. Thanks

My system came installed with Windows 7 Pro and also came with Windows 8 Pro DVDs. So, it comes with both.

Yes, it has Windows 7 Professional installed; however, the back-up disc, should reinstallation be required, is Windows 8 "upgrade."
