They themselves assembled one computer from two old ones in their office. Do we have the right to install an OEM version of Windows 7 on it?

Wouldn't this be a violation of any licenses there, and, as a result, crap in the future with a possible verification by interested structures?

If there are appropriate stickers, there should be no problems if the mother was left from the computer on which Win7 was installed.

The main distinguishing feature of OEM versions is that they are "locked" to the computer they were originally installed on and cannot be transferred to a replacement computer or any other PC. A necessary confirmation of the user's license rights is a certificate of authenticity affixed to the PC case. For additional confirmation of licensing rights and accounting purposes, it is strongly recommended to keep the packaging, information media (hologram discs, if included in the product) and proof of purchase.

This would be a violation of the license, since the OEM can only install an organization (legal entity) on a computer that will be sold to a third party (is a mandatory requirement). Can anyone find fault with this - I do not know.
To comply with the license, some other organization must buy old computers from you, assemble a new one from them, install an OEM, and then sell you the result.

Previously, he worked in a large company that sold OEMs to ordinary home users, but gave a mouse as a load. Formally, the buyer became an assembler and could use OEM. But now this shop seems to be closed.

It was a long time ago, you have to google it. But, if I'm not mistaken, when talking with representatives of MS, they came to the conclusion that upgrading a computer with an OEM license is not prohibited, i. in fact, you can change everything except the motherboard and case, tk. it has a sticker on it. If this is so, and the hard drive with an OEM license remains, then I don’t see any problems. I won’t say anything about installing it myself, but if there is a check, there will be a case with a sticker, clean Windows without any cracks and all the papers, then why cling to? Smoke flows, there it should have been discussed more than once.

If one of the OEMs sells you an OEM license along with a sticker, then you can put it anywhere and stick the sticker there - they will have problems, not you, because OEMs are supposed to put their own stickers on where they put OEMs.
