I need help finding my Win7 folder. I cannot find it anywhere. I also cannot find where Windows is actually installed. Any help would be appreciated.

Did you install Win 7 on the same drive as your present windows is on, or did you install it on another drive inside your system?

So all you have to do to recover the pc is put another disc in and it does it all for you .

Does sound like it is in a hidden partition on the same drive which would be split in order for this to happen.

I don't have a recovery disc otherwise I would've already done that. I want to just save the Windows 7 thats installed on the drive and get rid of the drive itself so I don't have to pay for another copy.

Ok you need your windows install disk to make a back up copy of it if as the video you have posted,if you just wont to copy your c drive you are best making an image of it, depending on the operating system you have installed you could use windows backup.

1. Open Control Panel, under System and Security open Backup your computer option.

2. In the lift pane, open the link “Create an image backup”.

3. Select the destination drive or Optical drive or network location to store backup files.
 
4.Click Next to include/exclude drives in the image backup.Note that the disk that Windows is installed on will always be included in the backup.You cannot include the disk that you are saving the backup to.

5.In the next step Windows 7 will give a last chance to confirm the backup settings you have chosen in the last step.Once you are agree with the backup settings just click Start backup button to start backup process.
Backup process few minutes to hours depending on the size of the disk.

6.After finishing the backup process Windows 7 prompts you an option to create a recovery CD so that you can restore the created image using the bootable recovery disc.

Hope it helps, let us know how you get on.
