    Clean Install Windows 7 on VAIO OEM PC


    I have a Sony VAIO All In One pc (VPCL137FX) running Windows 7 SP!. I am currently removing all of the Sony bloatware most of which is programs that Sony stopped updating years ago like their Media Gallery and Photo Browser...

    i have created a Windows PE Bootable USB UDisk for the computer and downloaded an ISO for Windows 7 SP1 and installed that on a separate USB UDisk. I was able to download the ISO using my laptop and the Media Creation Tool.

    Am I going to have any licensing issues if I do a Clean Install on the VAIO pc. It is an OEM version but i do have the product key.

    Please advise...

    Thanks,

    Should be ok if you have the coa key.

    Make an image of the current windows partition as backup just in case. You could also Toolkit in
