Hi, There is n't an option to be able to download the Recovery Partition, but there is an easy work around if you have ( or can borrow ) a retail Windows 7 installation disc that is exactly the same version as your OEM installation - ie as your notebook came with Windows 7 Home Premium 64bit this is the exact retail version you would need - this may well be the version you already have via MSDN. If you don't, you can create an installation disc yourself - just download the correct Disc Image from the link below and use an application such as to burn the ISO correctly to a blank DVD. These Images are clean and from a well-respected source, however there are only limited versions available. Use the disc to perform the installation, enter the Windows activation key found on the underside of your notebook when requested and when the installation has completed, use the 'Phone Method' detailed in the link below to activate the OS - this method supported by Microsoft and is popular with people who just want a clean installation of Windows 7 without the additional software load normally bundled with OEM installations. Any additional drivers you may need can be found - If in the future you wish to have the Recovery Partition back, you can order a replacement set of Recovery Discs using the link below - using these to reinstall Windows 7 will also re-create the Recovery Partition.
