Hello,
I wanted to load up Windows 7 and dual boot to give it a try since I am still using Windows XP Pro 32-bit.
I have done this once before but I cannot remember one very important thing, I know I got a warning about the hardware being changed and that my Windows 7 was now invalid in red ominous letters across the screen, it locked the OS and I just uninstalled it and forgot about it. I just don't remember if I had changed a BIOS setting that caused this or if it was a new GPU or HDD that brought on the lock out.
Now I don't plan on changing my hardware while dual booting this time, I DO want to be able to OC and tweak my BIOS settings, will this cause Windows 7 to lock me out of the trial?
Thanks.
