Guest webfactor Posted July 3, 2007 Posted July 3, 2007 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.
Guest Carol Steele Posted July 4, 2007 Posted July 4, 2007 RE: OEM restrictions,help. 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.

Guest webfactor Posted July 6, 2007 Posted July 6, 2007 Re: OEM restrictions,help. 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..
