  1. Okay, I just found out i have an OEM key... That means the license is tied to my MB, right? So, new PC, new license? damn.
  2. Alrighty then. I'll install windows with the "i dont have a key yet" (or something like that) option and when im ready to disassemble the old pc to sell, i'll put in the key that im using right now on the new one. That should do it, right? Thanks guys!
  3. But did you have windows activated in more than 1 computer at the same time?
  4. Let's say I sell the old computer, All I need to do then is format the computer and use that key on the new one, right? That way everything would be alright, no deactivation or transfer needed
  5. In that case, would I need to manually deactivate my old one or is it automatic from the moment I activate it on the new one?
  6. Thanks for the quick reply! Thats where I get confused. If a single key can be used multiple times, why do people pirate licenses? ex, lets say I didnt have a key, I could just get a friends key and use it on my computer, my wife's, other friend's etc. Is that really how it works? Not doubting what you're saying at all, but theres so much info online that at the end you end up not really knowing what to do exactly.
  7. Hi! I'm sorry if this has been covered before (probably has but couldnt find the exact info I need in other topics), but I just built a new computer and I am ready to install windows. I have bought a license (Windows 10 Home, still CD version, about 8 years ago) for this computer I am using now, old one, and I was wondering if I can use this license key to activate a windows 11 on the new machine once it's installed. Also, by doing that, will my old computer have it's windows deactivated automatically or do I need to do it myself? or, is it really necessary at all to deactivate it on the old one to be able to work on the new machine? Thank you in advance!
  8. I've trying switching where I plug my pc(other plugs in the house), and it still goes down. Idk... I'll just keep trying things. I'll update you if I find any solution
  9. Woulndt everything go down at the sime time if that was the case? My monitor, lamps, and everything else plugged in my room doesnt go down when the pc does
  10. Lol, annnnnd it just went down with a new 5x extension plug. What the hell man.. how is this the computer if, for example, the PS4 also goes down? I mean, its super weird. I have no problem in buying a new PSU, but it just makes no sense...
  11. Alright, so, I got frustrated with this situation, plugged in my playstation to relax a bit. Lo and behold, it keeps going into rest mode... Oh my god, the problem was the place where you plug all the power cables (not sure about the name in english). MAN I FEEL DUMB! Still, Thank you so much for your help guys!
  12. I will try that (unplugging the gpu). Is there a test or any way I can test if the problem is the mobo?
  13. Well, I can confirm that turning off XMP did absolutly nothing for my problem. Guess I have to switch my PSU and hope that's the cause of the problem
  14. Alright. I'm running auto atm, it's a waiting game now, since lately sometimes it only goes down once every couple days or once/twice a day depending on what i'm doing. Thank you!
