What it is, I have lost my disc that I made up with Win 7 SP2 on it. Can anybody tell me where I can get the download to make up another disc. Thanks

Thank you sir. I have SP1, will that give me SP2.

I'll be honest I'm not entirely sure. One would assume it would be the latest SP2, but if not then it will install via windows update.

Thanks andy.

Windows 7 never had an SP2 officially but there is an rollup update which should be included in the iso.

Thank you

There was never a sp2 for windows 7. If you use a windows 7 sp1 ISO you will find another 200 odd updates waiting for you.

I make my own windows 7 ISO using simplix updater so it has the most updates.

What version of windows are you after Home\Pro\Ultimate?

Once you install Windows 7 SP1 you'll probably have trouble getting the 200+ updates to download. There are several threads on here with workarounds.

MS released a Convenience rollup in May 2016 KB3125574 (476MB). Before up install the rollup you'll need to install KB3020369

I have an ISO with SP3 and IE7 integrated if you're interested.

Anybody know if these ISOs have the NVME drivers pre-installed?

Most of those 200 updates merely slow things down, add junk or telemetry or try to push Windows 10 - the only really critical updates are for the SMB fixes.

It would be best to just install Windows 10, you have simplified updates and nvme drivers inbox supporting all the latest hardware.
