How many times can I reinstall windows 8 OEM on the same computer?

I want to re install windows 8 OEM in hopes of fixing a computer issue. It is a custom built pc and i have only used windows 8 OEM on it. If i want to re install my software will i run across any issues? such as it can only be installed once? Key code not working after the first time?
I still have the key code. all the components of the pc are the same. Can i reinstall windows 8 OEM as many times as i like on the same computer? (this is my biggest question just in case I ever need to do it again) 

Answer Of the question

The OEM version of Windows 8 once installed on a specific computer, can never be installed on any other computer, EVER.

The OEM version also does not include free Tech Support from Microsoft. As the "System Builder" you are required to provide Windows Tech Support, because you are the Original Equipment Manufacturer, the OEM.

And, to answer your specific question, W 8 OEM can be re-installed on ONLY the original PC approximately once every 6 months, otherwise Microsoft thinks you're a Software PIRATE.

TIP: And, never lose track of the OEM Activation Code, either. Microsoft may refuse to replace it if you lose it.

Best laptops for students?

one high school going on college. So many of his assignments and projects require the computer, he very limited access to one. if he looking for a good-sized laptop (preferable 15-17 inches), dell or hp brand, and are good for school. I also don't want anything bulky, and that has a price range of 500-800 dollars! Also prefer windows 7???

If you want to choose between HP and Dell than I would recommend Dell over HP. The reason is the reliability. HP does have good laptops but between them Dell has an upper edge.

On the other hand I have one laptop in my mind from Dell which has the price of around $700 under your budget, 15.6 inch of screen and it is not a bulky laptop.

Also it is good for students as well as it has really good features which are necessary to perform the tasks efficiently. Here is a review which explains all of the dimensions of this laptop: 

I'd recommend you both of them
