Vista Product ID

Hi,

I recently bought a Chinese Version of Windows Vista with a genuine product
ID. If I were to install an English Version of Windows Vista and use the
genuine product ID code from the Chinese Windows Vista would it work? By
using a genuine chinese code, does this make my English vista genuine?

If it does work, will I have problems during activation and validation?

Validation/Activation is unique to each package, NO it can not be transfered

It certainly shouldn't, no.

You shouldn't be able to get this far.
