I am going to be upgrading my PC, meaning I will be changing Motherboard, Ram and CPU. I know by changing motherboard, I have to fresh install windows again. I originally bought my PC on pcspecialist and I can't remember whether I used a install cd or key etc. I no longer have access to a key, does this mean I'm going to have to buy another?
I have a windows and microsoft account if that helps.

Help would be appreciated, thanks! - Luca

If you have Windows 10, and you have a Microsoft account thats activated, then everything should be fine. You just have to install the same Windows version that you acc is activated with and log into it. For me it activated Windows automaticly, but it can happen that you have to do so yourself. But thats not so hard.
