Question about Windows Vista when upgrading CPU
If you get any messages about an invalid license, you may need to call MS
(toll free) and tell them what you did regarding hardware changes. They will fix it... no new license at all. "Colin Barnhorst" wrote in message ... You will not need another license.

Question about Windows Vista when upgrading CPU
No, you wouldn't need to buy another license. You MIGHT have to reactivate
Vista at the most, which might require a phone call to Microsoft by Phone Activation. -- Dustin Harper http://www.VistaRIP.com | Vista Resource & Information Page "Kin" wrote in message ...
