[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1350837, member: 46727"] Not to worry. You have a full legal version of Windows 7. The only difference between your copy and my Microsoft boxed copy is that yours is tied to the one machine you install it on - that is your Mac. And, Microsoft provides no support for an OEM system builder's copy. Which basically means no phone support. It will activate just fine and will pass the MS genuine version test. Go ahead and install it and enjoy Windows 7. Make sure you follow the Boot Camp assistant instructions closely. And, if you have a newer Mac you'll be required to download a driver image from Apple to burn to disk in order to install Windows 7 drivers. [/QUOTE]
