Windows 7 System Disc

[Cheemag]

My Windows 7 Pro system DVDs are marked X15-60528-01 and X15-60529-01. Are these OEM or retail versions?

There's no other indication and Control Panel/System gives no clue.

The machine came with Windows installed from these discs.

According to the net, they are Windows 7 retail DVDs. 528 is the 32 bit and 529 the 64 bit. Mine show the say thing, except the Pro version is -03

They may even be SP1 versions since my original shows 60560 and 61.

I could be wrong but I always thought an OEM disc was one you purchased yourself separately, e.g. for an upgrade (ie. it didn't come along with the computer when it was originally purchased.)

If the disks don't say 'For installation only on a new PC' then they are retail. If that wording (or similar) is present, then it's OEM
The Product ID from teh install will also tell you - if the second group of characters is -OEM- then (obviously) it's OEM, otherwise, it's 'something else'
If there's a COA Sticker attached to the case of the machine, then the license is OEM.

Thanks. I suspected they were retail as the vendor did say they could be transferred to another machine.

These are pre-SP1 - part of the reason I asked as I am seeking a legal copy with SP-1 slipstreamed.

Thanks.
