  The license of Vista OEM is related to the original computer it is installed on and dies with the computer.
  You cannot transfer it to another computer/laptop.

• Had to replace the motherboard with an ASUS P5Q Turbo luxury and now Windows 7 hangs on the Windows installation.

  I am so frustrated now that I'm ready to give up window 7.

  I had to replace my abit IX38 QuadGT inserted in my PC due to problems of firmware cannot be resolved (abit now being out of the business of the motherboard).  In any case, I bought a new ASUS P5Q Pro TURBO (which is SUPPOSED to be ready out of the box for Windows 7) and TRIED to reinstall my Windows 7 64-bit professional installation.

  To add bad things to me I had to replace my hard drive with a new WD 640 MB Caviar Black.  I had the feeling to my 500 GB Seagate Barracuda as a primary drive, hoping that Windows 7 Pro would see that, Yes, I had a previous installation of Windows 7, and it would allow me to install again.

  No luck.

  My system starts ok DVD of Windows 7, then the files installation done and then goes to the windows 7 screen installation and CRASHES completely.

  What ____! I have updated the BIOS to try to solve the problem, but of course, no go.

  Can someone tell me what to do _ because I'm NOT a novice by any means and I literally spent hours of my time trying to make a simple re-install.

  I am angry that this is not simpler than it is.  MS why can't this right. Good grief!

  Waddling in territory of Windows Vista

  Finally solved... by ditching the ASUS Board. It's a piece of SH$ (%!  Put in a Gigabyte UD3LR card. The RAM has acknowledged and assign it is 1066 speed immediately. Still using the Commission. A sweet piece of kit.

  ASUS Aspire now in my opinion. I'll never buy a Board again and encourage others to avoid completely. How the once powerful ASUS fell.

  All the best,

• Had to replace the motherboard: System does not boot, the XP installation disc runs to a failure.

  Thus, the motherboard in my PC started to die.  I replaced it.  Start-up of the new system has prompted a Safe Mode boot.  Choose Safe Mode, the system restarts after mup.sys.  Choose the last known good startup the initial windows screen appears briefly, then restart the system.  Boot from the original installation disk, all kinds of drivers charge then the last message that appears is loading Windows Executive.  A
  BSOD appears stating something to the effect of an error with the hard drive, verify the presence of virus, remove the new hard disks, etc..  Hard drives is a virus.  So, how do you round a re - install defective and/or repair or a defective Mode start safe mode with new material?

  Thank you

• I had to replace my motherboard and processor, now it will not except my vista OS disk because it is a disc of high level

  My mother had crashed so, naturally, I replaced it with a much better and bigger processor, but now it will not except my Vista OS disk because it is a high quality disc.  My question can get just the windows upgrade version 7, or do I have to get the full version?

  You have to buy a complete new installation of Windows 7.

  Upgrade version of Windows 7 is good to upgrade a previous version installed and activated Windows.

• Upgraded to Windows 7 and had to replace the motherboard. Now can't activate Windows 7

  I have upgraded from Vista to Windows 7 on my desktop Gateway in 2009. I just had the motherboard replaced and had to reload Windows 7. I reinstalled it as new instead of upgrading. Now I can not activate my key to Windows 7 upgrade. What can I do?

  Yes, you can purchase a copy full of the same edition of Windows is installed, and install the key by using the option change the product key.

  The quckest to do (not necessarily best) is to buy on Microsoft Store - they will email a key that you can use immediately.

  Hello

  1. are you facing problems during the installation of Windows update?

  2. don't you make changes to the computer until the problem occurred?

  I suggest you to try the steps below and check if it helps.

  Method 1: Try to put your computer in a clean boot state, and check to see if the same problem happens.

  By setting your boot system minimum state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem.

  Note: After the boot minimum troubleshooting step, follow step 7 in the link provided to return the computer to a Normal startup mode.

  Method 2: Try to scan your computer for the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.

  The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

• Impossible to reinstall Vista after replacing the motherboard

  I have replace my mobo last week.  I still have the same hard disk, cpu and RAM.  After starting my computer to the top, she would not accept vista for some reason any (I don't remember why) he did without BSOD for half a second, and then restart.  I find out one of my RAM sticks, lock was not engaged.  I fixed that, but it did not work.  I tried the system repair and recovery system, but they do not work.  I tried to reinstall vista with my recovery disks.  I reformatted the hard drive and complete the installation.  When the computer reboots, it said I had a system configuration error and I had to contact my computer manufacturer.  Of course HP could not help me because I have replaced the motherboard. I'm able to run my conputer because I installed ubuntu later. Everything works. My question is, when I have windows 7, I have to but the commercial version or do the upgrade?

  You will need a full retail version of Windows 7 or you could just buy a license for Windows 7 system builder OEM.

  -OEM versions don't offer any free direct support from Microsoft technical support Microsoft

  -OEM Licenses are tied to the computer first you install and activate it on

  -OEM versions allow all the hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard- that's why you could not reinstall Windows Vista on the new motherboard, because his attached to the motherboard that initially provided with HP and Vista recovery disk system are supposed to work only with him.

  -OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

• Replacement hard drive will affect my OS?

  (1) HP HDX16 - 1375DX, p/n NV033UA #ABA

  (2) Windows Vista (but windows sent a CD for Windows 7 upgrade for this laptop because Windows 7 was released a month after I bought the laptop)

  (3) Windows couldn't start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause.

  (4) no changes have been made. I only noticed that the witness 'busy' on my computer was on nearly 100% of the time. Literally, it would not stop blinking. Was no strange process on which may have caused it and my CPU usage was like 4 to 8%. I restarted my computer several times and noticed that even my computer loading took about 15 min.

  After typing my password for logging on to windows, it took about 2 minutes to the 'Welcome' screen and spent about 15-20 min of loading of the computer upward after that.

  Finally, after my 5th time perform a reboot it gave me the error message "Windows could not start. A recent hardware or software change might be the cause immediately after reboot and it will not even more go to the login screen

  I just did a hard drive self-test and it saidReplace hard drive, which means that even

  My friend says my hard drive is finally dead. (His death too but it had a warranty from Bestbuy to take care of all this.) I do not have) so I think to buy a hard drive for the Amazon and installing it just myself.

  How to replace my hard drive will affect my OS? Will I still have vista? My computer, bought from Bestbuy, never came with these "installation CD" I keep hearing people talk about. But windows has sent me "CD to upgrade" to windows 7.

  Can someone tell me what to do?

  Yes to replace the hard drive will affect the OS because the OS is on the hard drive. The hard drive is permanent storage and contains the programs and files you use every day. RAM (memory) holds the programs and files that are open on a computer running and only while they are running. RAM is off when you turn off the computer, the hard drive are not the case of the data.

  Theoretically the disc of Windows 7 will run on a computer that has Vista installed. While HP does not give you a Vista restore disk, the computer has a program on what might have you a recovery disk which could be executed, and then run the Windows 7 disc. If you can borrow a Vista install disk you can use your key code to install Vista.

  Your Windows 7 disc might actually work by itself. Worth a try. Here is a site that gives you a few instructions:

  http://www.winsupersite.com/article/Windows-7/clean-install-Windows-7-with-upgrade-media

  I think you're going to need some major help here and we can certainly help you. The first thing to do is to get a hard drive. Best Buy sells and so newegg.com and I guess amazon.com. Let us know what you think of buying and the cost because the price of portable HDD vary a lot and if you're savvy, they are fairly cheap but you can way too expensive, too. You shouldn't pay more than $100 for the larger drive and the best available and you can get a perfectly good for more like $50.

• Reactivate Windows 7 after replacing the motherboard

  I had to replace the motherboard. I have a 3-license Windows 7, installed copy on 3 machines (including this one). Windows tells me I have to reactivate, but the system of automatic phone won't let me because he thinks he's already on 3 machines. I can't find a way to learn how to talk to a person to explain. There was a previous answer saying to call the activation number but not to choose all the guests, but who never goes to a live person; the fair guests get an angry sounding, and finally he told to go away and come back when you're ready to do it properly.

  How can I get a real person to explain this?

  I would not however go this activation of the phone. You need to contact:
