In a few weeks I will be building my new rig. I currently have a Samsung 840 EVO SSD with Windows 7 64 bit OEM, my question is - will I have problems with installing the SSD into my new build with the OS being OEM? I do believe OEM OS is tied to your motherboard, so seeing as though I will have a new motherboard will I have to reinstall Windows on the EVO?

Is it a Win7 OEM disc? That's what I use. It installs fine. I've never had activation issues with my Windows discs.

 

If it's a "backup" or "recovery" disc from a computer that came from Best Buy et al, it usually won't work.
