Can i activate COEM win 7 with an OEM licence?

I think the license should work as long as you install the same edition of Windows. (Home/Pro/Ultimate/Enterprise)

Still tho 10€ is a steal for such a good board like the g33m ds2r so if you are interested in screwing around with 775 fsb oc then thatd be your pick

 

Goodluck to you aswell =)

Sorry to bother you again but after I put it all on the old mbo it won't boot into windows, it just starts loading, blue screens and restarts, it does it on the old drive, new SSD and in safe mode,

Could it be that when I plugged the old HDD into the new board it overwrote something and now the old mbo doesn't know what to do with it so it just boot loops?

 

But I am currently reinstalling win on the SSD so that he can at least use the pc, so I hope that this at least works

Set bios settings to default see if that helps

forgot the bios section that has the sata settings to set between ide and ahci so ill have to run my p5q again, maybe tomorrow ill send a pic

 

Essentially you may be running ahci while your os is ide or vice versa which causes the insta bluescreen

 

I assume you get to the windows is starting screen but before the windows logo even tries to appear it bsods for a split second and resets?

so maybe when i took out the cmos battery from the old mbo to put in the new one, it changed the bios settings to default, so I will 

have to change it back?
