Upgrade Hard Disk in Vista
whs;1260115 Wrote: Changing a disk creates no licensing problem whatsoever. Only a change of the mobo would require a reactiviation by MS. I wasn't concerned with reactivation issues, but rather if I could use my Win7 PRO DVD to boot and access the the System Recovery Options on my Vista O/S. Please read my original post, thank you. -- satwilson |
