Activation Question
I bought an OEM copy of Windows 7 Pro x64 from Newegg. I installed it using the Product Key but did not activate it.
A couple days later I decided that I would build another computer and needing another copy of Windows, decided joining TechNet would be the cheapest solution.
So, I uninstalled the copy of Windows 7 Pro OEM that I purchased - again, it was never activated.
My question is, if I were to sell that OEM copy of Windows, can be activated by the new buyer?
Can I tell them it has never been activated (it hasn't) and that it will work for them?
Or has the act of entering the Product Key on install locked that OEM OS to that computer already?
