Luckily I have a Ultimate Electronics near me and they're selling everything 30-60% off, I think it's 40% off hard drives.

 

I opened up my laptop and found the hard drive and I have a few questions on replacing it.

 

Will my OS be ok? What will I need to do about that?

 

I'm thinking I might need to use some disc to help get the OS back, I burned a .iso disc for W7 but couldn't get it to do anything ATM which makes me think it's the hard drive. Going to go get a hard drive tomorrow and give it a go, hopefully it works out.
