Re: [RESOLVED] Replacing OS
A lot of DVD writers and writeable media can be marginal, especially when writing whole disks.
In many cases the manufacturer can supply known-good real DVD restore disks much cheaper (and with the drivers you need) than buying a retail Windows product. Check their support site, this might cost as little as $10.

You can also download an ISO image of windows 7 (retail version) for free. Burn it to a DVD and install it using the product key that came with your computer. This is totally legal since the downloads are provided by Microsoft via digitalriver channel:

It's on a sticker called "Certificate of Authenticity", normally affixed to the bottom of most laptops (although some manufacturers put it in the battery compartment. In this case, you'll have to take the battery out to see it).
