I have run setups like that for extended periods of time without a
single complaint.  The first time I've run into issues is actually now
at work, I suspect it's the OEM license key that is causing the
troubles.

In any case there is no harm in trying.  You'll only get the
non-genuine crap popping up in the VM, when booting into it directly
there'll be no complaints at all.  So try it, if you get away with it,
great.  If not, just dual boot instead.
