I didn't pay anything beyond what came with the Dell system.
Yes. A Core2 system and this Ivy Bridge system, just not on the solid state drive.
I called to activate with the Core2 system. I haven't activated on the Ivy Bridge system because it's not yet installed how I want it (i.e. on one of the SSDs as opposed to HDDs).
Another forum is suggesting that it may be my new board isn't providing proper AHCI drivers during the install.
