Windows 10: 64-bit architecture not recognized

Discus and support 64-bit architecture not recognized in Windows 10 Installation and Upgrade to solve the problem; The clean install with the 64-bit ISO from your link worked perfectly. I have no clue what led to this problem, but I'm glad it's fixed. Thanks! And... Discussion in 'Windows 10 Installation and Upgrade' started by tridentone, Sep 30, 2015.

  2. Negative. However, the old 32-bit installation on my other SSD is activated. Can I use that key?

    Nope. It's just a generic product key that is a result of the activation - not what causes the activation.

    Isn't the activation hardware-based? Is there anything I can do to activate without buying a new key?

    Yep. Go back to Windows 8.1 64bit and do a proper upgrade. Everything you have posted so far has indicated there has never been a proper in place Windows 8.1 to Windows 10 upgrade completed. The first clue was going from Windows 8.1 64bit to Windows 10 32bit.

  6. I am getting Error Code 0x80070570 when I try to re-install 8.1 and I'm out of time for now. What are the ramifications of utilizing a non-activated device? I probably won't be able to make another attempt at this for a week or so.

    Mainly you won't be able to "personalize" Windows 10. (Apparently, though, if you are logging in using a Microsoft account, and there are activated Win 10 machines on the same account, some of the customizations will be applied to the non-activated machine.)

    Updates (at least the security related ones) will still be applied.
