So recently, my pc broke down randomly. Turns out my motherboard was broken. And since it happened to fast, i couldn't prepare myself. And i have not made a backup (i know i'm stupid) So i'm buying a new one and i'm wondering if it will manage to run the Windows 10 that was installed on my computer? I don't even know what's going to happen when i turn my computer on again. Please help me, is the new motherboard going to break when i turn it on because of the Windows in my hard drive?

Theoritically it should if it is already on the hard drive. You may need to update some drivers, which Windows should detect. You should have the key on a sticker on the computer itself.

Well, it may cause it not to be genuine because the hardware ID is not going to match what is on the hard drive. Is this a retail or OEM key? Also you can try to contact Microsoft to explain the situation to avoid buying another key.
