Hi:

 

If your g7 came with W7 Home Premium, and you can still read all 25 characters of the W7 product key on your notebook's case, you can download the W7 x64 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...

 

I have zipped up and attached below, the Microsoft utility you will need to transfer the ISO file to a USB flash drive or DVD so that it is bootable.

 

After W7 installs, you can install the drivers and available software from your specific model g7's support page.

 

HP no longer sells recovery images for any model g7 notebook and the only place I know of where you may still be able to get one is from this vendor...

You must search by the full model number or product number of your PC.  Recovery kits are model specific.
