    My Asus Mobo just died, just after 2 months. I am using W7 OEM

    I plan to send to the shop, (still under warranty) and get new replacement, the same mobo model (not upgrading, other part still intact.

    Will I encounter problem with the licensing with my oem 7?

    If the replacement motherboard is the same make and model, you should be able to reactivate.  If not, use the "activate by phone" method:

    1. Click on the Start button and in the Start Search box type in: slui.exe 3 and click on the icon that appears.

    2. Type in your Windows 7 25-character product key.

    3. Follow the instructions for phone activation (no charge).
