Ah good, thanks for the info Brink. :)
Hi, I've linked my Windows 10 Pro digital licence to my Microsoft account (I normally use the local account). If I was to carry out a major upgrade in future (motherboard, cpu etc), and I went ...
Yes, it says 'Unable To Reach Windows Activation Servers' for me.
Ah, that's another way of doing it and would save a lot of time.
Yep, I'd be completely getting rid of the Windows installation on the existing setup before proceeding with a new setup.
Hi,
A question about upgrading to Windows 10.
Before the free year expires, if I upgrade to Windows 10 from existing Windows 8 Retail on my current PC, upgrade it (new M/B, CPU etc) and then...

I get 'Windows is in Notification mode' with that slmgr /xpr command.
At the moment my PC has the 'Connect to the Internet to activate Windows' message though so I'll reboot again.
I've just...
Hi,
I'm another one to add to the activation casualty list. :(
I was going to wait for any initial problems had dissipated before trying out Windows 10 Pro but I just couldn't help myself so I...
