    You can not, for at least one (and two possible) reasons.

    1. it isn't clean if you want to have two computers, or you
    you want to remove from the old computer and put it on the new. If
    you want once, you can't do that - the rule is very clear: there
    a copy (or a license) for each computer.

    There is nothing new here. This is exactly the same rule that has been in
    effect on all versions of Windows from at least with Windows 3.1.

    2. but even if you want it on a single and from uninstall
    the old computer, you can't do it. It is because if it came with the
    computer, it is an OEM version and the biggest drawback to he a
    OEM version, is that its license it permanently binds to the first
    It is installed on the computer. He can never legally be moved to another
    computer, sold or assigned (except with the original computer).

  • try to install Medal of Honor Airborne on 32-bit vista, and problems with the windows firewall starts do not.

    OK, im losing my mind.

    I bought a copy of airborne for my 32 bit vista system and found initially that I had to do a few tricks to install and play it like UN-installing ageia phys-x, it was simple enough. Well I have had since stopped playing it and would try to uninstall without result. I tried to fix it and using "C-cleaner.

    I went down some of the files, but I think that my registry is a little buggy so I tried blocking it with c cleaner, he sure found several errors and fixesd them.

    Well, I'm trying now to re - install MOHA and when I put the disc and click autorun the pre-start games window appears with the usual options, play, upgrade, site Web etc... I hit play, it does nothing. I tried to uninstall it from the disk and to halfway through she said "MOHA has not stopped the Installation Wizard prematurely try again later". I can't repair or uninstall or install. I read somewhere that it is a firewall with windows problem and if I run my firewall victory "which I have never on", this should work if the software is added to the 'green' list on the firewall.

    now I find that I can not get my firewall to start. I researched and found a few forums where people explained to the services command prompt and tried to 'start' several 'order' in there and firewall programs will not start giving me this error-windows cannot start service windows firewall. and the code of error-6801.

    I am a novice to tooling autour under the 'software' hood of PCs. I know a bit about the material and that's it. anyone has any ideas for me? otherwise I'm looking to another disorder vista install, I had a moment difficult, installation of the 1st hour and im not not looking forward to try it again...

    Thanks in advance, has soon - a fool lose his mind...

  • I have an ASUS with Windows 7 Starter netbook, how do I change/retrieve my password when a user is available and the user at startup in safe mode?

    I don't have a password reset disk and that you do not have access to the windows Start button.

    There is another account that is not shown as an option when starting in safe mode?  It should not be.  Are you talking about the master admin account?  Is it permits?

    FWIW, if the user that is used in safe mode is an administrator, it can be used to change user to other users accounts.  If this isn't the case, please specify the problem.

  • Windows 7 OEM on the new motherboard

    I own and Compaq Presario SG3-130UK and have recently bought a new motherboard (to add more components).

    I currently have Windows 7 Home Premium OA, and I was wondering when I put in my new motherboard, the copy of windows remains the same? Or I have to buy a new copy? And if you buy a new copy, all my files and programs will remain the same?

    Thank you very much.

    Yes, that's what I was afraid of.

    Your new motherboard is too different to use the configuration on your hard drive to boot.

    You will need to do a clean install of Windows 7 and reinstall all your programs and files.

  • Re-using windows 7 oem on the new motherboard

    Hello I know that this question was asked a little, but I ask. I have my code and my physical drive. Right now, my windows is installed on my current motherboard. But I'm going to update my motherboard, CPU and GPU. I contacted I'd say customer live chat was not sure about it. But the person said I could use my key on a new motherboard, I just uninstall windows from my current which I was going to do. I see mixed comments on the OEM version of some people saying that it cannot be used on a system on this map a mother and can not be reused never on anything else. And others say that you can use it on a different build just uninstall etc.  I'm not seriously having to spend $100 on another windows just to update some parts.

    Hello

    Sorry to disappoint, but according to the terms of the license, a new motherboard is a new computer. The OEM of Windows version you have currently is linked to your existing motherboard. The only way you could 'reuse' it would be if you took the existing motherboard and built a new system around this motherboard and processor. It would be different if you had a full retail version of Windows 7, which is authorized to the user, so it can travel with you.

    Hope this clears the contradictory messages that you saw.

    Kind regards
