Hi,
I did a search but didn't find anything recent, now the dust has settled and Vista has been with us for a year, what is the current situation with reactivating/ rebuilding an OEM Vista system. I remember at launch MS were hinting that the OEM versions were not intitled to re-activation if the hardware had changed considerably or the drive was formatted and Vista reinstalled?
I'm still on XP Pro but considering the move to Vista as I'm about to upgrade and rebuild my PC. I thinking of getting the OEM Home Premium, but will I be able to rebuild my System (Re-Format) in a years time? What's the situation at the moment? has anyone successfully rebuilt there OEM Vista Install?
Cheers
