OEM restrictions,help.

[webfactor]

May I change motherboard´s if so even hotplug it with windows installed on a
STRIPE/0 or do I have to buy a new OEM Windows program and toss both
motherboad and OS.I read the OEM manual and came to up and downgrading
and swapped instead,I rather ask here at the newsgroup I get even tired
reading the OEM manual it´s so restricted.
I finally burned the bridge under the Grafic card.The wires to the cooler on
the grafic card,had burned to a metallic plate on it and shorten the wires,so
that it
had stopped it´s rotation,meanwhile I accidently forgot to attach the front
12mm
intake and a rear outblowing cooler had stopped in the heat,and there must
have
become so hot that the bridge down under have died because when I laid a hand
It were much to hot,I found the incident by BSOD´s 2 minuttes after turning
on the
computer.I have hotplugged the windows on a raid on another motherboard(same
Case and hardware except the motherboard off curse witch
succeded after first montage/exchange.The problem´s is that the ultra board I
exchanged with leaves my with a 375Mhz bandwidht and it´s 400Mhz 2 giga
sticks.
So I got another motherboard(Brand new)to put all the leftovers in and build
a new
and buy her´s OEM.It´s AM2 AMD´s maybe that board gives 400Mhz it´s my dayly
use computer so it means a lot while heat is on....the Internet and gaming.

Although I've never had your problem, I recently updated my memory on my
Vista OEM computer and that started to ask for activation again. When I
tried via the normal internet option it refused and asked me to phone their
activation number which I did. I explained it was the same computer and I
had simply upgraded the RAM and they had no problem issuing me with a new
number.

Replacing a MOBO is considered a new computer by Microsoft, but if the
current MOBO is being replaced because it is not working, and not to upgrade
from a working board to a newer more functional board it can be explained
and is an exception.

Thank´s alot.
Now I can relax a little about that.
The board is trashed and replaced.
If any requirement of phone call to representative
Microsoft operator,I will explain him the incident and
wait for further instruction,furthermore I will make a Genuie
Check.And consider this case solved until further notice.
Thanks to all..
Best regards
