Need to know about retail v. OEM with regards to hardware changes, specifically Hard Drives.
I plan on essentially building a new system here in the near future, and I will likely save a new hard drive for last. finally upgrading to a raptor, but I will be loading windows 7 on my new build with my CURRENT HD untill I have the finds for that new one.
I have currently had to activate my Vista copy through the phone with MS due to a hard drive change I made because it refused to activate over the web.
Will a hard drive change in Win 7 OEM 64 require me to call MS every time I want to format/reinstall?
