    Is it possible to transfer my OEM_DM key when upgrading to a new motherboard?


    Hello all, I recently bought a new MOBO Motherboard and was going to upgrade as a have a new CPU that is not compatible with my current MOBO. When I install the new MOBO is it possible to switch over my current windows key or do I have to buy a separate windows license. I see where I have the option to unlink my current device but not sure if that would be helpful. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

    :)

    Transfer Windows 10 key from old motherboard to new ones

    Hi Microsoft! I'm a customer who uses your products, specifically Windows 10 Pro. I got a problem which is Windows 10 Activation Keys. I updated my PC through Windows 7 Pro ( Activated of course ). And right now I want to buy a new Motherboard for RAM
    upgrade purpose. So my question is: Can transfer my key from old Motherboard to the new Motherboard to get full Windows 10 Pro Activation Keys? If it is possible, please tell me how to do that? Thank you!

    It depends on how Windows 10 was originally configured on your computer.

    If its a full retail store bought license online or offline, it is transferable to a new computer or motherboard.

    If its the free upgrade from a retail store bought Windows 7 or Windows 8 license, it is transferable to a new computer or motherboard.

    If its the free upgrade from a OEM preinstalled Windows 7 or Windows 8 license, it is NOT transferable to a new computer or motherboard.

    If its a retail license, learn how to reactivate using your product key:
