    Activation Issue after Recovery


    So I've had my current laptop for about 7 years and had a major error a few days ago that prevented me from booting properly missing/corrupted hal.dll file. I tried many options to try to resolve the issue without having to wipe clean as I had files that were not backed up and wanted to save them.


    Unfortunately I was unable to rescue my files and had to resort to factory reset it. However, I recall that when purchasing this laptop - it was a Windows 8 OS preinstall, that was upgraded to Windows 10 Home edition for free.

    Now it has become a Windows 10 Enterprise and is asking me for a genuine product key which I obviously don't have.

    What can I do to resolve this?

    :)

    Data Recovery for Mac (OSX Capitan) ?

    Anybody knows of a good data recovery software for mac? Preferably free?

    I use Active@ Data Recovery for Windows, but honestly no idea what to use for Mac OSX.

    Any suggestions?

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.
