None that I know of.
See this guide. Maybe there is something that will be of help. I don't understand why it reads some DVD's and not others.

I would like to install service pack and MS is pointing me this link but I think there is no service pack here.

I have downloaded some of them and tried to install they were not service pack.
What do you think about this?
Thank you.

Actually, you can just mount the ISO file.

You can just burn the file to a DVD using the burn ISO file menu on your DVD burning program.
It would have been much easier to download the exe file and just double-click and run it from the desktop, if you don't know what to do with an ISO file.
You cannot boot the SP1 ISO file from a USB flash drive. It has to auto run from a DVD.
If you can't figure it out, download the 64 bit exe file.

1. I have downloaded the exe file to install but as always something is going bad. The installation has stuck in the half way.
Can the probleblem be related to the windows 7 iso I used to install windows 7. Or can this laptop show its best performans with Win 8? When I was in Win 8 everything was nice.
2. When I formed a bootable .iso file to install windows could I add this sp exe file into that iso file, so that when I formed a bootable usb and used it to install win 7, can the service pack automatically be installed in the installation process? Can I do such a thing?
Thank you.

Yes, there is a way to slipstream the SP1 update into the W7 USB installation flash drive.
I don't know how to do it, so I can't be of any assistance with that.
