@flamingpandaomg Windows keys are generated with certain key-features ( hardware ID's are used ) of your hardware. Since your motherboard contains the motherload of them you can guess what has happned. Windows boots and checks the code they have versus the code of your current comnputer, it does not match, windows is not validated... There is a proper name for this, maybe hardware-id-key... I forgot. At any rate your windows-licence key is bound to your hardware-id-key that windows makes everytime you boot your system pretty much.
