Hello;

Allow me to welcome you to the HP forums!

Your model  laptop comes with any of three different OSs preinstalled: Win7, Win8.1, and Win10.

 

Of these, HP offers Recovery Media only for Win8.1.

 

To order that, use this page: http://support.hp.com/us-en/drivers/selfservice/HP-Pavilion-17-g000-Notebook-PC-series/7771368/model...

 

If that page does not show Windows 8.1 when you open it, click Change and select Win8.1 using the pulldown.

 

Once on the page, scroll down to the bottom and click Order Recovery Media.


Good Luck
