Hello,
I recently ordered new parts and since i don't intend on using my current machine anymore, I was wondering if I could use my reinstall the same windows 7 OEM on the new computer once i have it assembled. I've heard of people calling microsoft and requesting another code but im not sure.
Thanks

General answer: No. Windows OEM licenses are tied to the motherboard.
You could try to persuade Microsoft (over the phone) to reactivate it, but don't hold your breath.
