HELP

Hi

I recently bought a brand new pc with windows 8 (from John Lewis) already installed on it, however the motherboard and processor are being upgraded this weekend as they are not good enough for what i want it for, will i have to re install windows when i get it back? as i never got installation disks or anything like that, sorry for being dumb, just not clued up on these things lol

Yes, will need to reinstall, & buy a new product key, as OEM manufacturer product keys are non-transferable to a new motherboard.
