  1. new laptop


    I have bought a new laptop for my granddaughter. I have gone through the setup procedure and put in her email address to set up a Microsoft account but because she is under 13 I have to accept the legal stuff on her behalf. however when I try to do this I get the message "that doesn't match the name on your account. Try again, or update it" everything is correct I can log into my Microsoft account ok. The new computer is now stuck at the "review the legal stuff" screen. I am unable to use it at all ,I can't get into windows cant finish the set up. I have tried phoning Microsoft help and keep getting cut off. Help?

    :)
