No. Current OEM licenses for all operating system software are not transferable from one machine to another. Note: Some older EULAs for copies of certain OEM operating system software (that is; MS-DOS®, Microsoft® Windows® 3.1, and Microsoft® Windows® for Workgroups 3.1) distributed in 1995 or earlier may permit transfer of the OEM operating system software license under limited circumstances.
