Yes, but you may have to explain to Microsoft's Licensing call centre that the original machine is no longer in use.

Actually, I'm pretty sure you can't. Aren't OEM keys hardware-specific?

Do you have the Vista disc ? Talk to Microsoft.

Insted of going the long route. Just take out the hard drive and put it in your new one.
. If your old laptop still works Go to Recovery Manager and start it at factory setting this will erase all Viruses , and any errors. You will have it back to the factory settings.
If all else fails try using the two recoverfy DVD that you burned when new.
