OEM Version of Win7 re-installing the new motherboard.

I had already purchased a HP computer and want to update my motherboard, undesirable, provided with the original system OEM license will not allow update me my motherboard, because it requires a certified HP motherboard. If I create a disk image of my OS, wiped the entire disk from the recovery partition too and re-installed Windows, I'll always be able to install windows without the OEM license, as if a version normal/retail of windows?

Or should I buy a commercial version and go from there?

You can buy an OEM version is linked to the motherboard.

I hope this helps.

  • Cannot re - install windows 7 after installing the new motherboard

    I have a desktop HP, circa 2010, running Windows 7. It it a machine of HP brand with a product windows key that is related to specific hardware when I bought it. The motherboard died last week and the original is not available any more, so I had to install a motherboard ASUS. The PC starts fine until windows recognizes that this is a different material. The system restore fails also in the same Manor.

    Finally, I will restore this original sate is that it works even fines, it is a quad core with 8 GB memory and always runs fast. I have a new SSD drive I want to swap in and upgrade to Windows 10 after I return to a good state.

    I tried to install windows 7 from scratch for the new SSD, but I can't because the product key is a marked HP one and Microsoft does not accept it.

    Is it possible for me to get Microsoft to give me a new key proeduct, after all that I feel that I own this copy of windows and I have the right to re - install windows

    Any suggestions other than buying a new copy of windows is appreciated.

    Thank your for the answers. It looks like another office of Linux for me. Interesting to note that when I did a clean install of Windows 7 original Activation of Windows code on the side of the case worked well.

  • Install the new motherboard on my HP computer and cannot activate my license of Windows XP Media Center 2005.

    My original motherboard has been damaged, I had bought a very new and different motherboard to fix the problem.

    Windows does not allow activation because I imagine that the key is already used by my original activation.  The system does not have same me to log in windows.

    Yesterday, I spoke with Microsoft staff by phone and they told me that the license is linked to the original HP motherboard and so they could not reactivate my license and I have to get a new license.

    I thought that the XP license was perennially valid as long that you have kept the machine and if you have changed parts, all you have to do is call Microsoft and explain the change to reactivate the license.  I think that change a motherboard that has failed is not reason to not to reactivate my original license.

    I had another license for my MSDN subscription, if it's true that I can not reactivate my license due to change of motherboard, is there a way to get into my MSDN license key and activate without reinstalling windows and all software currently on the machine?

    Change the motherboard on a computer would be as...  Change your body with someone elses.
     
    MSDN licenses are for test purposes.  What is a production machine?

  • Can I install a new motherboard in my system without having to buy WIndows 7

    Ms will allow me to re - certify my existing Windows 7-64 version once I replaced the motherboard?

    I just had a long conversation with someone in the Group MS Activation (866-530-6599.) I explained to him my situation and he assured me that I would have no problem activating my Win7 on the new motherboard.  To check this, he asked my existing product key Win7, that he checked and said was "green". He also gave me an Interaction # that points to his diary of our telephone discussion.

    He was quite positive that I would be able to get my active Win7 OK with the new motherboard. Hoping that it is correct...

  • After installing the new version of flash player firefox only charge for most of the sites basic html

    After you install the new version of Adobe Flash Player yesterday, Firefox would not charge most of the sites except in basic html, as I understand is the right term for all the lists in the text, especially on the left side of the screen. They open in Google Chrome and IE. I tried to restore to two days ago, today I uninstalled Firefox and re-installed, I have tried several possible solutions in the support forums, but nothing has worked. I prefer Firefox but it will fall if I can't get this resolved quickly. Note: I only start from the principle that the new flash player was to blame as it happened immediately after. I don't really know yet what he does, it's just one of those things that appears and says he has to be upgraded to the latest version from time to time.

    The Flash player plugin allows certain types of media to be displayed in the web pages. Otherwise, you get an empty rectangle. Usually Flash would not hinder Firefox to load style sheets, images and other elements that add to the raw text of the page.

    You can try the reset function. It duplicates some data key of your active settings in a new file, bypassing some add-ons and custom settings. Your plugins (including Flash) will still be active, but may be disabled manually if you wish.

    More information in this article: Firefox Refresh - reset the settings and Add-ons. Please note that an old parameter file appears on your desktop. You might want to keep this around for awhile in case you need to save something from him
