My last thread got deleted, because I asked for a links, I guess. Anyway, I hope this one isn't breaking any rules.
Ok, so anyway, as I mentioned in my other thread, I plan on building a gaming rig, but the thing is, I can't use my version of Windows, because it's an OEM version, and tied to this motherboard. I was thinking of purchasing an install cd, and using my product code. I just got another idea, though. I was thinking of downloading a pirated version of Windows. Anyway, I don't have a CD burner, so I didn't think of this before, because I figured I'd have no way to install Windows after downloading it. But I was wondering,
would it be possible for me to download a pirated version of Windows over my current version? Then I was thinking I could just use this hard drive on my gaming rig, and it would already have Windows installed on it. Also, after installing the new version, would I still have the drivers for this motherboard installed? Because if it does, I wouldn't be able to use it with different hardware.
