Hello;
Recently I had to RMA my Gigabyte motherboard. There was none of the same motherboard in stock so i purchased an Asus motherboard instead. Obviously as Windows is tied to the motherboard my version of Windows is not licensed.
So my question is, do I have to buy another copy of Windows? Or is there a way I can get the licence for my current version of Windows? Surely it's not fair for me to pay for another copy of Windows due to a fault that was beyond my control.
Any contribution would be great.
