    I've bought an OS(Vista Business Edition), which was already installed on my computer.
    But the computer I am using now is an old one, I'm afraid it would break someday, so I want to know whether I could install the OS I bought to another computer or not, if this computer is broken?

    If Windows Vista Business edition came preinstalled as an OEM version, you cannot transfer that license to a different computer.
