Drit1227, welcome to the forum.

 

This is a strange problem.  Normally, the Recovery Discs contain the OS that came with the computer.  Are you certain that it came with Win7?

 

If you will provide the complete model of the computer, I will do some research for you.  If the OS on the discs is incorrect, I will see what I can do to get the correct discs.
