"Nevertheless, I've known users who got around this limitation by
calling
Microsoft and reporting that their motherboards died when they wanted to
build a new computer. It is Microsoft's policy to allow motherboard swaps
in instances where a system is defective or has suffered a hardware
failure. But you shouldn't bank on this approach; there's no guarantee it
will work"
