    What does OEM mean?


    I installed a new motherboard and was told that because my Windows version is OEM I have to purchase a new version of Windows?
    Why is this? Can someone explain Windows licensing to me?

    :)

    What does OEM mean?

    Miracast Windows 10 dxDiag "not Available"

    Let me suggest you to contact the manufacturer of Miracast. To contact the manufacturer, please follow the steps below:

    • The name of the OEM + “contact information”
    • The name of the OEM + “PC support”

    Regards.
