  Your windows is only valid on the computer, it was originally installed on. It cannot be transferred.
  You can buy a full windows installation on your motherboard retail retail.
  EDIT: added more information.

  ) SLP OEM: this key comes pre-installed in Windows, when it comes to the factory. This key is designed to work with the special instructions isn't on the hardware of this manufacturer. Then, when Windows was installed using the OEM SLP (in factory) Windows 7 key leans on the motherboard and he sees special instructions and activates. (that's why you had no need to turn on your computer after you brought it home)

  Hi Jer9009,

  Welcome to the Microsoft answers site.

  ·         Could you give the exact error code or error number you get?

  To connect multiple computers, install a network adapter in each and run a network CAT5 cabling to connect each one to a hub (and thus the other.) The computer that will serve as a transition will have a standard network card for wired and a wireless network adapter that will connect to the wireless (WAP) access point or gateway on the second network.

  A network bridge is software or hardware that connects two networks or more so that they can communicate. You can create only a single bridge network on a computer, but a bridge can handle any number of network connections.

  For more information, see the link: create a network bridge:http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-vista/Create-a-network-bridge

  Add a connection to a network bridge: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-vista/Add-a-connection-to-a-network-bridge

  I worked on the Web site of our Church and all of a sudden this week, my computer does not connect to the site. I get a message saying that the connection to the server was reset while the page is loading. Can anyone has any ideas on how I fix?

  The error message "the connection was reset" can be caused by a bug for the attack of the BEAST fix (browser exploit against SSL/TLS) that the server does not support.
