Hi:

 

You can download a W7 Home Premium 64 bit ISO file from the link below, toward the bottom of the page.

 

https://getintopc.com/softwares/operating-systems/windows-7-home-premium-free-download-iso-32-bit-64...

 

Then use the Microsoft tool that I zipped up and attached below to transfer the ISO file to a DVD or USB flash drive so that it is bootable.

 

Since the ISO file is retail and your notebook's product key is OEM. you may have to use the automated Microsoft phone activation system to activate the installation.
