Windows Vista Home Premium OEM

Hi Everybody,

Thinking of installing the above software, can anybody tell me
how many activations you are allowed for the oem version.
What happens when, you re-format your pc after a crash or virus
will you be able to activate your licence again.

As far as OEM goes, is this a copy you got with the PC?

Hi,
No this will be the first time installed on my pc .
The oem version comes with a bit of hardware, that,s the
way company,s sell the oem versions.

I'm not really sure about that type of OEM license. I'm guessing it will be the same as retail.
