    Will OEM based Windows 10 Home installation leadto harware warranty as VOID ?


    Hi Greg,


    Hope you are doing well. I recently did a NEW PC build for myself (personal use and gaming) and installed a Windows 10 Home (activated via OEM based product key) on my motherboard.


    After working for a while (exactly 3 months), my motherboard (MSI Z370 Gaming Pro Carbon) got busted.


    But now, MSI is mentioning that due to installation of OEM based Windows version, the warranty of my motherboard is VOID and I cannot claim a replacement in its name.


    As per I have read in numerous places on web, I thought that I was eligible for a Builder's OEM since I did the build for myself and with the brand news hardware as well. I only wanted to use the Windows copy on 1 machine.


    I have a few questions here-


    1) Is using a OEM based Windows voids warranty for hardware components like motherboard?

    2) How can a Windows OEM version could cause a hardware failure?

    3) Have I, unknowingly, voided the warranty for my motherboard with this or my motherboard manufacturer (MSI) is trying to ditch me on the warranty?

    4) Does even installing OEM version under Builder's OEM is considered/supports piracy? Will my copy would be considered as NON GENUINE even though I am getting regular updates from Microsoft?


    Your response on this would be highly appreciated. Thanks in advance.


    Regards,

  3. Installing ATI TOOL voids warranty?

    It will not void your warranty and there is no way they will know that it is installed.

    developer, warranty void

    It is true that installing GDR3 developer preview will void warranty but what if I don't intend to install GDR3 or any update provided through this program. I just want to 'developer unlock' my phone to deploy an xap file. Will this void my warranty?
