Hi everyone,
Could so tell me if this is ok. I have purchased a computer with all parts
choosen separately and assembled by me with an OEM window xp disk for the
operating system. I'm already registered the winxp and use the comp for
approx 10 months mainly for home entertainment. The proplem is, I'm not happy
with the motherboard as it has limited options for expansions. I have found a
good motherboard for upgrade but not so sure if I can use the OEM window xp
to reinstall the operating system or I have to buy a new one??? I remember
that I've read some comp magazines somewhere that say something that this
can't be done, that Winxp must stay with that motherboard. Could someone pls
confirm this for me or point me to directions that may help with this????
Also is that the difference between OEM and retail version of Winxp??? Many
thanks for your help.
