Installing new OS on new SSD with old equipment - problems?

Etainz · Nov 22, 2013

Can I expect to run into any problems by installing a new OS on a new SSD using my old computer while I wait for the rest of my parts to arrive? Just trying to save myself some time, no point if it'll end up creating more problems than time saved.

Yes, you will. Your new OS will be tied to the hardware you are installing the software on.

What version of Windows? Specifically, retail or OEM?

OEM, and 7 if it matters. Glad that I asked.

Yep, OEM once installed on a specific motherboard will not work on a different one. Just wait. You'll be much happier.
