Q. What is the difference between GGK and an Original Equipment Manufacturer (OEM) license? A. GGK can only be used for legalization of existing PCs with unlicensed Windows software. An OEM license can only be used for preinstallation on a new PC. GGK is similar to an OEM license in that there is no transferability to another PC and there is a COA. GGK differs from an OEM license because with GGK there are no downgrade rights and Microsoft provides customer support.
