transfer basic family win7 to new pc

I bought Win 7 Home basic 32-bit English (OEM System builder pack, dvd) and installed on a desktop, enabled through phone.

After a while, I bought a laptop pre-installed with some other operating systems like linux. After that, I didn't have desktop used for awhile. I formatted the hard drive and used for another device. (I still have this hard drive and desktop pc with me). Now, I tried to install win7 on my laptop. But I can't activate it with the purchased product key. Is it possible to unregeister or to activate win7 desktop and turn on my new laptop?

You cannot transfer an OEM license on another computer. OEM licenses live and die with the first PC, they are installed on the.

You must purchase a new license for Windows 7, if you want to install on your laptop.
