  Because Windows 7 is in limited stock because Microsoft ended sales in October 2013, this created demand due to its rarity. This means the retail boxed copies request a bonus, while the OEM System Builder copies remain affordable.

  Full version (retail):

  -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.
  -Does not require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.
  -Expensive

  Upgrade version (detail):

  -Includes the rights of transfer to another computer.
  -require a qualifying earlier version of Windows.
  -Expensive, but less expensive full version

  OEM System Builder version:

  The OEM of Windows 7 versions are identical to the versions commercial full license with the following exception:
  -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 hardware upgrades except for an upgrade to a different model motherboard
  -OEM versions does not move directly from an older Windows operating system

  There is nothing wrong to use it too, especially that all future versions of Windows will be full versions.

  You can find software OEM System Builder of dozens of online merchants. The current price for OEM Windows 7 Professional Newegg, for example, is $ 140. When I checked a few minutes ago, Amazon offered packages OEM Windows 7 Professional from several vendors at prices ranging from $ 101 to $ 150. When I checked earlier, a package designed especially for a refurbished PC cost only $50 to get a copy of 64-bit.
  There is no technical limitation to prevent you from using OEM software on your computer, although this software only works for a clean install, not an upgrade. In the past, Microsoft has been remarkably inconsistent in his advice to clients on the question of whether this practice is allowed.

• Pre-installed Vista CD computer Dell laptop allows you to install Vista on another computer of dell desktop originally pre-installed with XP?

  Hello.

  Have an old dell desktop with XP.
  Have a new computer dell laptop with Vista.

  Both came pre-installed.
  Both came with a CD to reinstall Windows.

  Am I allowed to install Vista from that original CD on the desktop?
  I did, then you have the problem (not genuine copy of Vista). I have since reinstalled Vista, but before I completely setting up the office, once again, I want to make sure that I am able to do this (do not want the new not genuine error).

  Specific questions:
  1. am I allowed to use portable CD to install Vista on another computer?
  2. If so, that must be done to ensure the "not genuine" error can't?

  Thanks for any help.

  Reference Dell binds their records to their motherboards.

  If your computer is pre-installed with Vista, it is classified as an OEM license and is not transferable.

  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

  And a Vista license = a Vista Installation.
