I am having problems with my current MCE install and the hard disk atm is a little too slow for my liking.
I was thinking of purchasing a 150GB Raptor and then putting MCE on that drive, and then using the 320GB I have at the moment as storage for the files and recordings.
Will I have problems activating my OEM copy of MCE 2005 on the new hard drive even though the rest of the computer is exactly the same (bar the graphics card, the RAM which I will replace with Kingston RAM & have 3GB instead of just 2, and the ATA 160GB Hard Disk which I will be removing to put in another computer) I have read some threads which state that the copy of Windows once activated is fixed to that computer.
Does it look like I'll have to purchase a new OEM MCE 2005 to install on the new hard drive or can I fix this by phoning a freephone number to call Microsoft? Worst of all because I bought the OEM copy will I have more hurdles to get over?
