Everywhere tells me to use [Windows} + R to get into recovery mode on my Mac Pro 3,1 but with this Windows keyboard IT DOES NOT WORK

AAAH!

Also - can I run OSX 10.7.5 ? I'm trying to move from an iMac.

If you have a DVD of whichever OSX you installed, it will run the equivalent of [Command] + R if you boot with the DVD in the drive holding 'c' key down.

Here you can re-establish the recovery partition with disk utility or restore from a Time Machine backup or reinstall from the internet or whatever.
