5. HARDWARE DISTRIBUTION. If this package contains hardware units, we grant you a nonexclusive right to
distribute each hardware unit only with either (a) a fully assembled computer system or (b) other non-Microsoft
computer hardware component. If you distribute a hardware unit with a fully assembled computer system, you
must preinstall the associated software drivers and programs supplied in this package, if any, on the fully assembled
computer system’s hard drive. Neither Microsoft, its affiliates, nor its distributors or suppliers makes any
warranty regarding compliance of the hardware units with any federal, state, provincial, or local laws or regulations,
or the laws or regulations of any non-U.S. jurisdiction, relating to computing devices or items sold to the
public. You have the sole responsibility to assemble, test, and certify the hardware units in conjunction with other
equipment that you manufacture, distribute, or sell.
6. PREINSTALLATION REQUIREMENT. When you distribute an individual software license for a desktop operating
system or application software, you must preinstall it on the fully assembled computer system’s hard drive
using the OEM Preinstallation Kit (“OPK”) provided in this package or otherwise made available by us. This preinstallation
requirement does not apply to server software. For a list of available OPKs, information about using
OEM preinstallation tools, OPK support and how to obtain OPKs, see
www.microsoft.com/oem/sblicense/OPK.
Preinstallation is limited to one copy of each individual software license. You may not copy or modify the OPK or
OPK instructions. You may not distribute the OPK or OPK instructions to an end user.
