In nowadays most new computers are shipped without Windows 7 (or Windows 8) installation disks and some of them without a DVD drive installed on them. Instead they include a recovery program that uses a hidden recovery partition to restore the computer to the default factory working state or to create (by the user) recovery disks in case of system crash. For my experience many users do not know the importance of having recovery disks for the case of system (disk) crash and they don't create them when they obtain their new computer. In the other hand many users they don't want all the extra trial software that was installed on their computers and they want to perform a fresh clean installation without any extra or crap software.

This tutorial is written to helps users to create a bootable Windows USB or DVD disk and perform a clean installation of Windows 7 OS using their own valid Windows 7 Product Key.*

* Note: Keep in mind that you can use this tutorial as well to create a Windows 8 USB or DVD bootable disk.

Requirements
