Sorry guys but I am new to the forum and I am almost positive this question has been asked and answered before. I searched through page 14 with no luck and my forum searches didn't produce an answer either so I figured I would bug the experts here. I am currently running XP Pro and am seriously considering upgrading to Vista or even Seven. After a complete system restore, and if I am using Windows Seven or Vista, will I need to go through MS OS validation process or will the timeline on the OS just pick up where it left off? Thank You For Your Help, Mike Hammond

Normally, there isn't a problem with Windows activation (it's not usually necessary after a restore). If you restore to a different (new) drive, then Windows may require it due to the hardware change. However, it shouldn't have a problem reactivating if it's still running on the same computer.
