Hi:

 

What you have there is a W7 Pro OA SEA product key.  SEA means that it is a special key for use in Southeast Asia countries, so I don't know if you can use a regular W7 Pro ISO file or not.

 

Anyway, I am giving you the link to the W7 Pro 64 bit English (US) ISO file.  It is the only one I have access to.

 

https://download.microsoft.com/download/0/6/3/06365375-C346-4D65-87C7-EE41F55F736B/7601.24214.180801...

 

The link will be good for 24 hours from the time of this reply.

 

You can see if it will work with your notebook's key.  You may need to use the automated Windows phone activation system to activate the installation.

 

This is the updated ISO file from 2018, so the file is larger than the usual 3.09 GB, and will not fit on a standard DVD. 

 

You will need either a dual layer DVD or USB flash drive to make the bootable installation media.

 

I have zipped up and attached below the Microsoft tool you will need to transfer the file to a dual layer DVD or USB flash drive so that it is bootable, or you can use a different utility for this purpose.
