A question about legality.
The current PC, a Lenovo, I am on previously had Windows Vista installed on it. It was upgraded using a Home Premium Windows 7 Upgrade disk to Windows 7, and is now running it.
Another laptop we own recently had a hard drive failure and was rendered unusable. We've bought a new hard drive, and as such need a version of Windows for it.
Can I use the upgrade disk and do a clean install onto this new hard drive of Windows 7 and use the same product key we used for the Lenovo without breaking an legal agreements and voiding our version of Windows?
I've read the "Windows 7 Upgrade Paths" topic. If it counts, I also have an old desktop in the house that is came pre-installed with Windows XP. Would this affect me being able to do a clean install?
