Putting retail version on OEM computer
I did a clean install of W7 Ultimate on my dell computer. When I was deleting partitions I noticed a Dell OEM partition. It was very small so I didn't delete this.
My thought was, if I ever wanted to sell this computer I would need to put Vista back on the computer and was afraid that my OEM disk would not work because I had deleted the partition.
I want to be able to put any computer back to the same state when purchased in order to avoid locking my Retail Version to one computer.
Does this little OEM partition have any bearing on the ability to revert the computer back to the original state?
If so, those of you putting retail might want to keep that partion available.
