So long story short I need to reformat my windows 7 and re-install it. I have my CD key so not looking for any pirated junk. I just need to uninstall it and re-install windows 7. I found this on Ebay but I am unsure if it is exactly what I need.

From the looks of the advertising it is what I need right? Before I buy it I just want to be sure. And also ask here if anyone knows of another way I can get the disc for what I need to do?
I used to just get the ISO file directly from the microsoft website and burn it to a blank cd. But apparent with the Windows 10 release they completely removed their handouts of the ISOs files. You can apparently still get it from their site by providing your CD key but whenever I do I get this message
"The product key you entered appears to be for software pre-installed by the device manufacturer. Please contact the device manufacturer for software recovery options."
So I assume I am out luck when it comes to the official ISO provided from Microsoft. Again if anyone knows of any sure ways I can get one. Or can confirm the Ebay listing is what I am looking for. Info is greatly appreciated.
