[QUOTE="Rolo, post: 422350, member: 37118"] It isn't as an MSA isn't required; it is purely connected to the activation server. There are explanations of this; I just read a detailed one a few weeks ago but I can't find it. Small changes (hard drive, adding some RAM, changing a video card) won't trigger activation but changing several things at once may. Additionally, changing the motherboard will trigger it as will, sometimes, flashing BIOS. [/QUOTE]
