so when i got this laptop i made two backups - one which created a "factory default disc" and one for the drivers and settings etc.

now when i 'restore to factory settings' will windows 7 still be installed on my laptop? (it came pre-installed with the laptop and there were no windows 7 discs available in the box). here's a screenshot of the restoration options.

it says 'restore the operating system of your PV to the factory defaults.' if it came with windows 7 installed thats a factory default i'm assuming.
