    "We can't activate windows on this device because the product key was already used on another device. If you think it wasn't used on another device. select Troubleshoot below. Error 0xC004C008"I have been temporarily spoofing my serials, HWID etc on my PC for the past week and I purposely only used a temp spoofer so when I restarted my PC everything would be back to normal and i didn't wanna permanently mess with my HWID. I noticed after a few hours of temp spoofing I get the "active windows" pop up on my screen and I didn't think much of it because when I restarted my PC it turned back to nor

    Hwid spoofer destroyed PC

    Hi, I am Dave, I will help you with this.

    There are two types of utility, a HWID Spoofer and a HWID Changer, they both change the HWID of the PC and will cause Windows to become deactivated, a spoofer usually does not permanently change the HWID, so it may or may not be possible to fix this if you used a HWID Spoofer, but the only method is to backup your personal files and clean install Windows 10 from a bootable USB.

    Click this link:

    https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/software-downlo...

    to download the Media Creation Tool (Click on Download Tool Now), with that you can download the latest Windows 10 ISO (Select Create Installation Media for Another PC), you can create a bootable USB flash drive (min 8GB) using that tool

    Then, Boot your PC from the Installation Media you just created (change Boot Order in your BIOS) to begin installing Windows 10

    During the installation process skip the steps which ask for a product key and select the option 'I am Reinstalling Windows 10 on this PC'.

    Overclocking / Undervolting guide for Vega 56 or 64?

    Here's a quick laundry list:

    List of software to use for overclocking and testing
    Examples:
    Wattman (and how to find and use it, like an overview, including profiles)
    Unigine Valley or Heaven (use this for quick testing while changing settings in Wattman and checking for stability / artifacts) ...just suggesting this
    How to monitor cores / mem speeds and temps during testing (I've seen screen overlays, and others using GPUz)

    Step-by step overclocking in Wattman
    Fan speeds
    Power limit
    Temp limit
    Voltages
    Core speeds
    Memory speeds
