    Can I use Windows 7 on another custom build?


    Hi,


    I currently have a custom built pc which i plan to upgrade basically everything keeping the GPU, HDD and PSU, i have an OEM version of windows 7 although currently running windows 10 because of the free upgrade and I'm wondering whether i can use this windows 7 OS on my new computer?


    Im going to be basically making a new pc new mobo, cpu, ssd etc. So will windows think its being used on 2 different PCs or can i transfer the license across?


    Im going to be wiping the old PC so im not trying to get 2 copies working together, I just want to transfer my license to a new machine, is this possible?


    Thanks!

    :)
