Mine is just a simple question...
My old PC runs a fully activated retail copy of Windows 7 Professional.
I've recently bought an iMac and through Boot Camp have also installed my retail copy of Windows 7. (not yet activated it though...)
Once I have safely transferred all of my critical Windows data from my old PC to my new iMac I intend to activate my retail copy Windows 7 which is now on my iMac.
After successfully transferring all of my Windows data to my new iMac I intend to uninstall Windows 7 from my old PC before re-installing my old retail copy of Windows XP back onto my old PC to enable me to be able sell the old PC..
How do I transfer the "activation" of my retail copy of Windows 7 from my old PC to my new iMac ?
Do I have to contact Microsoft first or just go ahead and activate Windows 7 on my iMac...
Both copies of Windows, 7 and XP, or Full Retail Legal Disks..
