Windows 7 Home Premium OEM license use

Hello

I am a technician in a primary school.
Instead of buying pre built computers, I think building 24 'in house' of components purchased online.
I already have 24 Windows 7 Professional Upgrade licenses.
As I build machines from scratch can I use Windows 7 Home Premium OEM license and media and then upgrade to Windows 7 Professional using the licenses that I have already?
Thank you.

  • Limitations of re-Activation of Windows 7 Home Premium OEM

    I think about building a new PC Core i7 and Windows 7 Home Premium OEM license purchase. I understand that in the future, if I make significant material changes, such as the replacement of the motherboard or the CPU, I re - activate Windows 7.

    My questions are:
    1 - How many times can I re - activate Windows 7 Home Premium OEM as long as I install it on one PC?
    2 are there limitations to the activation of the operating system, as the replacement of the motherboard, processor and hard drive at the same time?

    Thank you!

    1. If you change the motherboard, it invalidates the OEM licensing all together.
    -OEM versions allow all upgrades of equipment with the exception of a upgrade to a different model motherboard
    The license is linked to the motherboard when its installed and active.

    2. by phone, then upgrade with wisdom.

  • Pre-installed Windows 7 Home Premium - OEM keys - retail keys - COA label underside of the laptop... MESS!

    In 2011, I bought a laptop MSI CX 640. Windows 7 Home Edition Premium has come with it preinstalled. With that I think I buy a license for the operating system and the right to use and reinstall it if I need it.

    Over the past four years this handyman crossed a lot of Setup on the laptop, including Linux, Windows 8 and 8.1 and Windows 10 technical overview etc.

    Fast forward to today and I learned from Microsoft's offer of a free copy of Windows 10 for owners of authentic versions of Windows 7. So, what I have to do is return to the original genuine Windows 7 Home Premium I own and I will be able to reserve my copy of Windows 10 right?

    Not so fast, accomplishment that could not and certainly turned out not to be so simple at all.

    I had several long phone calls with Microsoft, who finally dumped the hot potato between the hands of MSI.

    MSI I have to say has been useful at the beginning, they sent me for free and quickly 2 recovery disks I needed that SHOULD have helped also go back to square one, just like I wanted.

    Should, but actually didn't. Recovery fails with an error that seems to imply that the process is looking for a nonexistent disk 3. MSI is perplexed, all that they have these discs and the simple instructions they send with them. In addition, they are totally in the dark and "will not go dark.

    However, one representative suggested that if I could get my hands on a copy of the operating system OEM I certainly would be able to install and use the key I have on my laptop MSI low COST label to activate it. His logic I think, so I'm going to work on this. Another detail, I have to mention is that tht key on the COA label is kind of door as they are all are sitting unprotected Abdel low. But I can take a photo in high resolution and with little digital magic improve to a point where I hope I can read almost all of it and try to guess the characters who are still in question.

    Or so I thought that, actually, he does not leave 2 possibilities.

    I'm guessing either not right (possible but not likely in my opinion, after all the tests I had) or is NOT an OEM key or if it was has now been cancelled.

    Now I'm guessing is NOT a key to the retail, who tried with a copy to the details of the operating system.

    So where this leave poor me, owner of a license of Windows 7 Edition Family Premium authentic apparently, I can't use.

    I hope that one of you readers can help understand me this and I hope my work and tribulations (I'm a very determined guy) can also help some of you in this if you are also in my shoes.

    One final note of common sense me:

    If I buy a product, whether it is OEM, sale retail or gift from God, I would get with it all licenses, numbers, keys, permissions, instructions, ten commandments necessary to have access to this product at any time and without hassle.

    Which seem to apply to most of our purchases isn't?

    NOT THIS ONE OF COURSE!   MICROSOFT?

    Why not reinstall Windows 8.1 or just enjoy the opportunity for Windows 10 preview to the free final version.

    I'll be able to upgrade the Windows 10 insider preview to the final version?

    Yes, you will be able to switch the preview of Windows Insider to the RTM version for free.

    Company officials noted that if you join the program initiated Windows you get the free upgrade to the final version.

    Last confirmation:

    When asked if there would be a date for the deadline insiders before 10 reaches RTM Windows, Gabriel Aul of Microsoft says preview builds will continue to come up to the final version.

    "We expect to keep overview to insiders builds all the way up to the RTM." More details to come, but no cuts planned. »

    https://Twitter.com/GabeAul/status/592917514503507968

    After the upgrade, you can switch to the Stable channel.

    Otherwise, your best option is to get Windows 7 Home Premium retail media and use COA key to reinstall and reactivate. To learn more:

    New installation Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit OEM worked the 1st time on workstation Dell Precision 380 (Pentium 4, 3.0GH, 1 GB RAM, Windows XP), so I registered with Microsoft.  PC worked too slowly, so I upgraded the RAM from 1 GB to 4 GB.  PC will not start now.  Nothing on the website of dell, or the PC manual led me to believe that there could be a problem.

    After I had already performed several tests, PC manufacturer said to install Windows 7 AFTER upgrading the RAM.  However, as the installation before the upgrade of RAM and joined already, can I now reinstall the OS without affecting the OEM license.

    You can reinstall Windows OEM on the same computer. Case of failure of the online activation:

    Call Microsoft use the manual phone Activation

    If you have trouble activating Windows 7 you can call Microsoft to activate it by following these steps:

  • Satellite L750-1WW - Windows 7 Home premium OEM reinstall

    Hello

    A few days ago, I bought a laptop Toshiba Satellite L750-1WW used (about 3 years).

    The only issue with it is, that there Windows 7 Professional and of course corrupt, but the original OS was Home Premium. This laptop will be my mother, and I don't want to (and also) to pass messages each time you start: "this copy of Windows is not genuine" and other things.

    Another thing: there is no recovery partition! I couldn't do a simple system restore...
    However, it is a key product for HP Win7 64 bit on the bottom of the PC, it does not work on any Windows 7 (Home Premium - Ultimate - Professinal, 32-64 bit), I tried all the possibilities.

    I asked Microsoft Community to give me assistance on the resettlement of the original operating system.

    They told me to say to my Toshiba problem, because only the manufacturer can wake the system, or reinstall the original OS.
    So now, I ask you for help.

    Greetings,
    Csaba

    Hello

    > Another thing: there is no recovery partition!
    Of course the previous owner has modified (formatted) HARD drive and the table partitions, and consequently, the recovery of partitions isn't available.

    The serial key you will find at the bottom of the unit does not have in relation to the clean Microsoft Windows operating system. He touches s an OEM and belongs to the Toshiba system preinstalled.

    If you want to get the original operating system preinstalled, you can order the recovery disk. The recovery disk would fix the laptop to factory condition.

    My question is this: can I use the activation key that is provided with this download to activate my installed version of Windows 7 Edition Home Premium? What is OEM?

    Thank you.

    If it's legitimate, the key should work.  If the PC on which you try to install had OEM Windows 7 (same version that you have installed the new), it must be able to be activated without buying a new key.  But either way is OK.

    The PC comes with Windows 7 OEM installed should have a COA sticker on it somewhere to manage such reactivation as described in the post.
