Windows 10: Hardware changed cannot reactive windows 10

I installed windows 10 when it first came out I never entered a key to active it or use my windows 7 key. My computer died and it was replaced with the same motherboard and now im unable to active windows 10. I don't want to use my windows 7 key to active 10 and I don't want to buy a retail windows 10 key just yet. The troubleshooter not letting me active it cause its not tied to my email address. Is there another way to active windows 10?

Reactivating Windows 10 after a hardware change

Before changing my MB and CPU I thoroughly read an article on how to reactivate Windows 10 after hardware change. I connected my activated Windows 10 that I bought from a retailer (so it's not a free upgrade) to a Microsoft account, changed hardware, went
to settings-account-troubleshooting and was surprised buy it saying "We can't reactivate Windows as our servers aren't available right now. Wait for a few minutes or try adding your Microsoft account again.". It's been more than couple of hours
since I tried it for the first time and I don't really believe that Microsoft servers can have that much downtime. So what is my next step now?
