[danroyle]

hey scan guys in afew weeks i need to pick up a couple of hard drives for my pc and probably a new graphics card

i know you are supposed to buy oem OS with a new pc or components and different sites are stricter than others (aria will sell with a £3 mouse)

but can i get oem vista with these bits or will i have to buy it somewere else

cheers

I believe the requirements for hardware to purchase should be listed in the info for each Vista version.

A “fully assembled computer system” means a computer system consisting of at least a central processing unit, a motherboard, a hard drive, a power supply, and a case
A “nonperipheral computer hardware component” means a component that will be an integral part of the fully assembled computer system on which the individual software license will be installed.

so a hard drive is integral to my system so it should be ok then

An Internal HDD would be fine
