Do I have to reinstall windows for a new mobo?

morgan64333 · Apr 7, 2014

Upgrading my mobo CPU and ram. Are there any alternatives to reinstalling windows that don't require a copy of windows cuz I don't have one. Do I have to reinstall or is there a way to reactivate it or something?

Clean install is needed.

So does that mean there's no way around buying a new copy of windows because money's an issue
