    MS Win 7 OEM System Builder Version


    My system builder pack warnings refer to a "fully assembled computer system." I bought it to install on a new system C: drive, but I need to add two data drivers (D: and E:) later. Is that going to be a problem?

    No problem. Adding drives should not trigger activation.

    Are you one of those people who is breaking the System Builder license agreement by keeping the PC for personal use? Tsk tsk. I guess that you have lots of company.

    I would never do such a thing. Never. Not even a little bit. And thank for the answer. Just wanted to be sure.

OK, so I see decent deals for Windows 7 Professional SP1 64bit (OEM) System Builder out there... When installing this, can I use any Win 7 install disc and use the COA for activation? OR, is there something special about the "System Builder" part where you have to use that particular disc?

Windows 7 System Builder Question
in Hardware & Devices

Hello all, I am thinking of building a new computer and installing Windows 7 Professional. If I were to build it, I'd probably purchase the System Builder Version. Would I be able to still take and install images with that version? Is that version okay? Thanks in advance for your help!
