    Asking to verify my identity

    Hi,

    I purchased a new laptop and its asking me to verify my identity.

    My problem is my old laptop died, so I don't have access to the information I had re my microsoft account.

    The time expired for me to verify and now I can't progress past "Verify your identity" (I am wanting to throw the computer out my window eek)

    Thanks

    Rhonda

    New laptop; can`t verify my microsoft identity

    Hi, hope someone can help.

    I can`t verify my microsoft account identity on my new HP Envy laptop with Windows 10, because the email address is wrong on the screen box.

    I now have to wait 24 hours after 3 attempts, trying to reset the password.

    I`ve opened a new Microsoft account (using my old laptop), but can`t use it because I can`t get past the verify setup page on the new laptop.

    Any input would be gratefully received.

    Thanks
