What happens if I don’t activate Windows?

If you don’t activate Windows within 30 days after installation, you will not be able to use every feature of Windows. You can regain full use of your computer by activating Windows.

Your free upgrade is an OEM dvd and would be illegale to use on a differnt pc.
