windows 7 - Checking Win7 ISO veracity - Win7IsoVerifier says its not ok

My laptop HDD broke. I bought new HDD. I is Asus n53sv so I dont have Windows 7 installation DVD, I had only the preinstalled Windows7 and I have product key. Since the hdd is unusable I must download new Windows7 ISO.
I am trying to download it from here: microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows7 and i put product key there and it says Error: 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.




I've downloaded Win7 ISO not from MS pages, I check its veracity and I have doubts:
The Win7ISOVerifier says that: The specified ISO file is not recognized Windows 7 image. I installed it on USB HDD and it boots OK but before using it I must check its veracity.

Where are the ISO checkums to check? Why Win7ISOVerifier doesnt recognize it?
