  The OEM of Windows 8.0/8.1 license is related to the motherboard and not the hard drive, so you can reuse the new hard disk provided his will in the same computer.

  About the old drive you need not to worry about the formatting as the old disk can never be reused. If you want to be sure, you can physically break the old disk with a hammer before throwing.

  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.

• Question about the license of Windows Vista

  Hello. I didn't know where I should post this. I have Windows Vista, I purchased an upgrade. My question is, "I am allowed to install the software on a friends computer. Because I don't need the software, can I sell the software. I know that Microsoft has its policies, but I don't know what they are. I don't want to do something that I'm not supposed to do.

  Thank you.

  Original title: Microsoft Software
  

  Hello

  You posted in the appropriate Forum.

  Yes, a retail upgrade license can be transferred, as long as it is removed from where it was originally installed.

  One license is for a SINGLE Installation.

  ___________________________________

  These are the General rules for OEM and retail licenses, which can also help you in the future:

  If the machine came with the preinstalled Windows operating system (Dell, HP, Acer, etc.), this product key supplied with the laptop is preinstalled OEM license 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.

• How to transfer a license of Windows 8

  I have a pro license of Windows 8 and installed on an old laptop.

  I want to install Windows 8 on my laptop today. Is there a way to disable the existing windows license and activate it on my new laptop?

  I got this license in India and I reside now in Germany.

  Thank you

  Well, the first thing you'd have to do is to withdraw the license of the current computer or at least uninstall the product key then proceed to upgrade the new laptop using the same key.

  On the old computer:

  Press the Windows key + X

  Click prompt (Admin)

  At the command prompt, type: slmgr.vbs - upk

  Press enter, this will uninstall the product key of the computer and to the evaluation mode, you are now free to use it on another computer.

  Update the computer to Windows 8 Pro:

  Press the Windows key + X

  Click System

  On Windows, click the link:

  Get more features with a new edition of Windows

  
  

  Click on the "I already have a product key link.

  Enter your product key and you will be promoted to the Pro.

  Because the key was already in use, you may need to reactivate by phone:

  1. press the Windows key + X , and then click run, and then type: slui.exe 4

  
  

  2. then press the ENTER"" key.

  3. Select your "country" in the list.

  4. choose the option "activate phone".

  5. stay on the phone (do not select/press all options) and wait for a person to help you with the activation.

  6. explain your problem clearly to the support person.

  In regards to the old computer, if it came with an earlier version of Windows such as Windows 7 or Vista, use the recovery partition to reinstall or to reinstall the older version of the original install media.
