I was planning on a swing migration of my SBS 2003 server to a new
server, but I just discovered that it is an OEM license. I've read
some postings in this newsgroup that say this is against the rules of
the license to install on a different server.

What options do I have at this point? Of course, I'm more interested
in the options that don't cost any money or very little.


Any input is greatly appreciated.

If you bought your copy of SBS bundled with the hardware, it has to stay
with that hardware. Sorry....

Unless the move is due to a motherboard failure, then you are permitted
to move the installation to a new/different motherboard.
