The unit that I received did not. Since I am not thrilled Windows XP, due to it's high maintenance, I wiped the drive and installed Linux Ubuntu v 14.04 which has worked flawlessly. The only downside is that for games, this unit is not great. Otherwise, it works very well.

Mine did not, but Windows 7 SP1 includes all drivers for the system so it was fairly easy to set up.

Yes. Any computer loaded with Microsoft Windows must contain Restore CD. If a seller doesn't provide that and its not an authentic disc, they are selling the system illegally and you should report them.

It is required to have either a Restore CD or the Restore Partition. Since most companies do not have the technology to include a Restore Partition, the Restore Media is required. See straight from Microsoft: http://oem.microsoft.com/public/oem/refurb/mar_refurblicensingguide.pdf. The question came from a Dell GX620 computer, when those came out they did not have a restore partition, they had a restore CD. While we have the technology to put a restore partition onto this computer, since it originally came with a restore CD and not a restore partition, we include the Restore CD.

It depends on which seller you buy it from. Mine did. Look at the items the seller lists that the PC comes with. A good seller will include a recovery disc with any PC.

My didn't have one but some might depending on who you order from. You can ask or check the discriptions too to see if they offer a disk.

Yes, the one I got on January 9 came with pre-installed Windows 7 Professional 64 bit, and it contained Windows 8 system recovery disks, which I suppose you would later use to upgrade to Windows 8.

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.

No. It does not come with a restore CD but you should be able to make your own.

No disc was included. If reinstallation is necessary you would have to download it.

Yes it does. You make the discs yourself, the computer guides you. As well as other recovery options.

it comes with W8, but no, no disk, and you have to make your own restore disk. Hope this helps.

NO. I bought mine from BEST BUY. They charged me an additional one hundred dollars for a four piece Windows recovery set.

I have used versions of both. There is no problem extracting a stubborn disc via software commands or a re-boot.

The laptop comes loaded with Windows 7 Professional. I make recovery discs as soon as I receive the laptop. Also supplies with the laptop is Windows 8 Professional recovery discs.

It does. But these discs have an extremely high error rate. I strongly encourage you to purchase another brand.

Hi Wade, the system comes with the Windows disk for complete re-install if needed, otherwise Windows does have backup and recovery built in.
