Boggin:
What exactly are you trying to do with the install disk ?
If your install disk doesn't include SP1 and you are unable to uninstall SP1 then you can't use that disk for a repair install - you can only use it for a clean install.
If you can wait a few days for the Postal Service, I can burn you a couple of Win 7 SP1 universal install disks so you'll have one spare.
These were the Pro version but by removing the eicfg file, they will now cover from Starter to Ultimate.
I assume you are using x64 bit ?
Just PM me your address.
Boggin:
I'd forgotten that if you have a valid retail key for your Ultimate then you may be able to download an ISO which may include SP1 from -
https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-download/windows7
Select Save and then you can use this Windows Burner Tool to create the bootable media of your choice, but if you opt for creating a bootable USB, ensure your machine can boot from USB before the HDD.

I can still send you a couple of Win 7 install disks if you want them.
