WGA Killing Vista
It probably will make you reactivate your OS. But, Microsoft will get you
back up and running with a phone activation. -- Dustin Harper http://www.VistaRIP.com | Vista Resource & Information Page "azmudrat" wrote in message ... If I install a new harddrive and video card in windows Vista Home Premium will WGA kill my OS? If so, and I have an OEM copy will Microsoft reset it?

WGA Killing Vista
If you are required to reactivate you will have a grace period and Microsoft
will not do anything to your Windows. If the hard drive is your system drive then reactivation is certain. If it is any other drive there will be no impact to activation. The video card should not trigger reactivation by itself but can in combination with other changes trigger reactivation. "azmudrat" wrote in message ...

WGA Killing Vista
I swapped out 2 GeForce 8500GT's in SLI configuration with 1 GeForce 8800GT
and it triggered reactivation. "Colin Barnhorst" wrote in message ... If you are required to reactivate you will have a grace period and Microsoft will not do anything to your Windows.
