Windows 10: Error Code 0x8004de40

Hello All,


I've seen a bunch of issues regarding Error Code 0x8004de40 when it comes to OneDrive. I wanted to post this as I too was having the issue. The questions posted on here are all closed because they are "Solved" with "Fix your internet." I too was able to login to Sharepoint/Onedrive and Sync. However during the login promptwith Authenticator It would fail with the error stating I was not connected to the internet.


I temporarily changed my DNS to OpenDNS/GoogleDNS or something similar ie: 8.8.8.8, then in an elevated CMD prompt, run this command to flush dns.ipconfig /flushdns This solved it for me. as well as several other machines having similar problems. This worked for me and may be something to check if you aren't using your ISP's DNS or a public DNS. Your mileage may vary.


Sorry if this post isn't relevant discussion.


Thanks,

:)

BIOS error codes

So I have motherboard with installed small LED screen, which presents BIOS error codes.

Where can I find a list of those errors. And I don't mean beep codes, but the "number" codes.

Ex after installing sound card, the motherboard startup fails with the code 15.

Windows 10 will not activate Error code 0x803F7001

Possibly there can be the problem with Microsoft activation Server, so your Windows 10 is not activated. In this scenario, you need to wait and verify if it is the issue from Microsoft’s side. But if you are getting error code 0x803f7001, you can also try these steps:

1. Open Settings app. Then go to Update and security > Activation screen > Change product.
2. Type your Windows edition product key and click Next.
3. You’ll get We couldn’t activate Windows error message.
4. Retry steps 1-3 then type your 25-characters unique product key.
5. Wait for the process to complete, Windows 10 is activated.

Hope something helps this problem
