i bought the windows licence its not OEM.If you dont there are a few possible outcomes. It might bootup ok and work but more likely if it boots you will be chasing issues indefinitely or it might not even boot. It is recommended to just reinstall.
As for licence key, what version of Windows and where did it come from? Did your licence come from a prebuilt system or did you buy it?
