    I upgraded from windows 8.1 to windows 10 and it didn't activate


    Hello, today I upgraded my Windows 8.1 to a never one and the key from older version didn't activate on my Windows 10. What do I do? I already tried troubleshooting on System > Update & Security > Activation but it told me they weren't able to activate windows on this device. I don't know what to do. Please help me.

    :)

    DOWNLOAD WINDOWS 10 NOW - Upgrade and ISO direct from microsoft

    Click to expand... Yeah I went to that site, why do I need to buy a key?
    I won't buy a key, stupid.

    I'll revert back to windows 7 then.

    When I still was on windows 7, about a year ago I added 4GB extra ram which is a total of 8GB now,
    is that causing the problem?

    Unlocked Realtek HD Audio Drivers Windows 7 & 8 (With Dolby Digital Live and DTS Interactive)

    DTS supported natively by Windows 8/8.1 and it should work on windows 10 too just DDL require to unlock your driver .
