Product Key Query
Hello All,
First post so go easy on me!
I have a desktop running Vista, and I've just bought a new laptop which has Windows 7 Home Premium.
I'm a bit frustrated with the laptop as I didn't get a Windows 7 disc and when I reinstall windows using the hard disc partition option I get a stack of useless OEM software which I don't want such. It seems I can't do a clean install without having to remove all the OEM software afterwards so I figured I'd buy a copy of Windows 7 home premium for my desktop and then use the disc to do a clean install on my laptop.
I have the OEM product key for the laptop, but will this work if I use the installation disc that I'd buy? I guess as long as they are both Home Premium I shouldn't have a problem.
I don't think I'd be breaking any rules with this as I'll have two genuine keys.
I also have all the drivers etc so it should be quite straight forward.
Thanks,
Jon
