Okay, so my i3 hard drive failed. I have another hard drive, but it's for an older motherboard. On this motherboard, there was a Windows 7 OEM preinstalled on it.
In order to use my i3 motherboard, I was going to uninstall Windows 7 on the older drive, buy a new Windows 7 OEM CD for $100, replace the mobo with the Sandy Bridge one and reinstall Windows 7.
However, would this work? Or do I need to get Windows 7 Professional, to install Windows 7 again?
