Hey everyone,
I wanted to ask if it's possible to change my motherboard with Windows 8.1 OEM, my PC came pre-built with windows 8.1 being pre-installed. I'm going to be replacing a GIGABYTE ga-78lmt-usb3 + AMD FX 6300 with an ASUS Z97-AR and i7 4790k. All I contain for this OS is the Product Key in the sticker by the side panel of the PC and what I think, is the recovery disc. If it helps, it's a CybertronPC Hellion and the disc says, "For use with a licensed CybertronPC System" on the disc but it also says Windows 8.1 64-bit. Would it be possible to change the MOBO if I use the same HDD with the OS on the new motherboard?
Thanks in advance,
rainfire
