OEM Windows 7 Ultimate Activation Question
Hey All,
Wasn't too sure if this had been asked before but I couldnt find anything so....
I have an OEM Copy of Windows 7 Ultimate and was wondering how many times I can reinstall it without worrying about Not being able to re-activate it.
I have installed it once, then had to reinstall due to a faulty motherboard, which propmted me to call a number and do the long digit entry and since then I have had to format again and when I reinstalled it was fine, didnt have any problems with activating.
Im not looking to change hardware soon, so I was just wondering how many more times on the current pc build i have I can reinstall without having to buy another copy?
So to Clarify
First Install - Activated
Second Install - Automated Phone Activation
Third (Current) Install - Activated over Internet with no problems.
Many Thanks!
Ohhh also, if I was to update my CPU, would that warrant another phone call?
