if you reinstall on the exact same hardware you are fine, but if you change your mobo/cpu/mem/etc... you have to call microsoft.

Bah all my old cases are TOO old. SO Tuesday I have have to move the guts from my current system into an old small box so I have room for the new system. I got the AC2 cooler for it. I decided to get a few other pieces while I was at the computer shop an hours drive away in Sioux Falls. Not the best price but if I have issues I can drive over and get replacements pretty quick. I'll get pics of the operation. =)
