If I bought a new computer, can I reinstall windows 7 on the new computer? RRS feed

  • Question

  • I have bought a new computer, and I want to reinstall the copy of Windows 7 I got.

    The copy is a retailed version, not an OEM version.

    Do I have to uninstall or somehow unactivate Windows 7 from my old computer before I can activate it on the new one?
