• Transfer of a license of Windows 8 to another motherboard.

  Hi everyone, I hope that I can get a bit of advice on a bit (or what seems to be) complicates the question, I'm going to.

  I bought a PC has some time there as well as an OEM of Windows 7, which, at a later date, updated to Windows 8.
  Now, I recently bought another motherboard to replace my old H61 and would like to transfer my license of Windows 8 for the new motherboard.
  I will be reuse everything in my computer, but with the new motherboard (CPU, hard drive, etc. remain)
  I would be able to deactivate my license on the current motherboard and reactivate it on the new motherboard?
  I don't mind doing a reinstall full, however I quite a considerable amount of data on my hard drive that could take a long time to back up. If one assumes a second question would be; can I just hook everything back up to the new motherboard (including the operating system and all data on the HARD disk) and then turn it back on there?
  Is there any problem in doing this? as at the time, I wouldn't reinstall anything as such.
  Thanks a lot for any help in advance.
  Best regards

  Windows 8 is an upgrade requires a qualification license on any computer, it is installed on even if it can be transferred.

  The license of Windows 7 would be such a qualification license except that because it is an OEM license it can be installed on a single computer. The primary component that defines a computer is the motherboard, even if you transfer everything because you replace the motherboard is a new computer.

  Therefore, you cannot install the original Windows 7 OEM on the new motherboard license legally and is a limitation specific to the upgrade of the EULA for Windows 8 that you can't use it to make an illegal installation of Windows 7 in a legal installation of Windows 8.

  You will have to purchase a new license for the new computer that might as well be Windows 8.1. However, you can transfer your license to upgrade existing on another computer eligible (XP, Vista, Windows 7) so you can recover at least part of the cost.

  There is no process to 'disable' for Windows licenses.

  Can move you to a new Windows 7 computer

  If it's a full license or upgrade retail - Yes. You can move it to another computer as long as it is installed on a single computer at a time (and if it's a Windows 7 Upgrade version the new computer must have its own qualification license XP/Vista/7). The previous installation of Windows 7 on the old computer must be formatted or deleted. You will have to perhaps call Microsoft and explain what happened to complete activation. Turning it on the second computer will automatically be in effect 'disable' the license for the first computer. The key works with 32 and 64 bit, but can only be installed at a time.

  If it's an OEM license - don't. OEM licenses, including Windows preinstalled on a computer before purchase and Windows purchased separately, are related to the first computer, they are installed on and cannot be transferred to another computer. To install Windows on another computer, you will need to buy another copy.

  Hello

  No.; If the operating system on the other came computer preinstalled (Dell, HP, Acer, etc.) you can't use it on another PC.

  If the laptop/computer came with preinstalled Windows operating system (Dell, HP, Acer, etc.), this product key provided with your computer/laptop to the OEM license preinstalled and is not transferable.

  OEM license/product key (systems of operating pre-installed on Dell, HP, etc.) is related to the first machine it is installed on and dies when dies of this machine.

  Only retail Operating System license that you buy and install yourself, are allowed to be transferred to another machine.

  And retail licenses also can be installed on a machine at one time.

  The computer has detected in the network may be the other that you have, you will need to check the network and check the name of the computer. I would suggest trying the following methods and check if it helps.

  a. Click Start. Type cmd in the search box and press ENTER.

  b. at the command prompt, type the following command and press ENTER:
  ipconfig/all (there is a space between ipconfig and /)
  The command ipconfig/all command displays for all your network adapters, TCP/IP in Windows settings.

  c. enough at the command prompt ipconfig and press ENTER. This frees up your current IP address.

  d. ipconfig / renew in command prompt and press ENTER.

  The DHCP configuration for all adapters is renewed. To renew the IP address for a
  specific adapter, type the name of the map that appears when you type ipconfig at the command prompt.

   

  Method 2:
  If the problem persists and you have not Windows Vista Service Pack installed then you can refer to the link below and check if you use the fix passes solve you the problem.

  I recently bought a ThinkPad Edge 14 and with it a copy of the 64-bit Windows 7 preinstalled.

  Seeing that I use based on unix systems for work, I was wondering if I could wear somehow the copy of Windows 7 that came on the ThinkPad Edge on my desk at home.

  It would be a possibility?

  Thank you

  When you buy a computer with Windows, you get an OEM license. The license OEM Windows belong to the computer and not you and cannot be legally transferred to a new computer. If the computer license die with the computer or in the case where you are selling the computer the new owner will receive the license as well as it belongs to the computer.
