Jul 11, 2009How does windows system builder licensing work? I need to understand how it works before I decide to buy into it. Lets pretend i'm buying this Here are my questions: How many times am I allowed to install this on the same pc (same hardware)? Does it allow upgrading major parts within the PC without requiring a new license each time? Can I install it on multiple PC's without requiring a new license each time? I don't care much about MS support not being included, but is it still available if i chose to pay for it?
If I sold my PC I could sell the license with it (transferrable) is this true? Would I need to re-purchase a license when I build a new PC if I transferred it already.

Other Volume Bars Control The Main Volume
Nov 7, 2007i would be patient and it would go away. at first i noticed that while using msn messenger, its volume control for voice chat controled the main volume for the whole pc. so if it was low things wouldnt sound as high as i wanted. no matter if i adjusted the main volume in the control panel, which was always set to highest, the volume would still be at the mercy of msn m. so if it was lower than usual i would have to sign into msn m and adjust it. not only does this happen with msn m. it also happens with web video applications used by Internet, livevideo, etc etc! those arent usually the culprit of low sound. its usually just msn m.

Sep 8, 2005I installed XP Pro on an old machine for my in-laws (about a year ago). I have now purchased them a new computer, but it came w/ XP Home. I would like to upgrade the new machine from Home to Pro. I will be removing XP Pro from the old machine & reformatting the hard drive. The MS site indicates this is possible, but doesn't mention anything about licensing restrictions or activation. I tried to find the licensing agreement to see what it said about transfer a license to another computer but couldn't find it. I'm also curious how the activation process will go... Will I be able to just do the online activation or will I need to do the phone activation since I'm transferring a license.

View 4 Replies View RelatedNOTE: OEM Licensing Terms Have Changed?
Dec 19, 2009Recently, Microsoft modified the licensing terms for OEM editions. Previously,purchasers were permitted to apply OEM licenses to their own computers provided the licenses were purchased with qualifying hardware. However, the Windows OEM System Builder EULA now prohibits purchasers from applying OEM licenses to computers they are building for themselves, friends, family members, etc.As explained in the revised license comparison, "[OEM licenses] must be preinstalled on a PC and sold to another unrelated party." (Emphasis added.) These revised licensing terms apply to all OEM versions of Windows currently sold, including Windows XP, Windows Vista, and Windows 7. Please keep these revised terms in mind when building your own computers

View 1 Replies View RelatedOEM Licensing - How To Sell Without Violating Applicable Laws?
Apr 13, 2007I have an unopened (i.e. Brown box, the red seal is intact, no license has been accepted) OEM copy of Server 2003 x64. This has been sitting around since before I came to work at this store. Since the server it was intended for was never built, my boss wants to sell the software so we can at least recoup a bit of the loss. I'm sure the receipt has long ago disappeared and it's likely beyond any return policy as is.
How do I sell this (Ebay, etc...) without violating any applicable laws? Am I still required to bundle hardware? What is the minimum hardware if required?

Apr 7, 2004I'm running remote desktop on Windows XP which ran fine for awhile. Now I get this error. "The remote computer disconnected the session because of an error in the licensing protocol. Please try connecting to the remote computer again or contact your server administrator." The Microsoft knowledge base had this to say
"Cause: The licensing protocol handles the communication of licensing information between your computer and the remote computer. If there is an error in the licensing protocol, your computer cannot be connected to the remote computer. Solution: Try connecting to the remote computer again. If you continue to receive this error message, contact the server administrator"
I'm the server admin, and I can't figure this out. Please help! Where do I check to see if my license has expired? It's such a strange problem because I can connect to other servers in the domain, just not terminal servers.
