    No internet on second hard drive after Windows 10 pro install


    Please help.I installed a fresh copy of windows 10 pro on a second hard drive.Once the install was complete I had no internet service on this hard drive despite still having internet service on my primary drive in the same computer.When installing Windows 10 pro I was asked to connect to a network even though my PC is connected directly to a ethernet cable.I do not have wifi so I was forced to proceed without a internet connection.I have checked the drivers and compared them to the drivers in the hard drive that does have an internet connection and all drivers are the same.Windows 10 says that I do not have a valid ip configuration when I troubleshoot.

    :)

    Clean Windows 10 (?PRO?) install

    I have bought a legit "Windows 10 Pro" key of a key website. It is legit since i'm currently using it for over a year now. I currently have Windows 10 Pro installed on my PC and I want to do a clean install. I just can't find the windows 10 Pro download in the tool. But if i could use a windows 10 pro key with a normal windows 10 install, I'll be good to go.

    No internet on second hard drive after Windows 10 pro install

    How to format hard drive and still keep windows 10?

    1) Verify it is activated by right-clicking on the start button, selecting System, scroll down to the bottom, and it should say "Windows is activated." If it does not, make sure the computer has internet access, click on activate windows now and then close it when it asks for a key. Let it sit there for a few minutes and it should switch to activated. Microsoft now has a hardware ID for you Windows 7 upgrade.

    2) Install Windows 10 from the install media (likely one of the ISOs). Make sure the ISO matches what was originally installed and activated. For example, don't use a Win 10 Pro ISO to install Win 10 Home. It won't work activate.

    3) Once you get back into Windows, repeat step #1 when the system has internet access. It should automatically grab the key and activate.


    Windows 10 can install without a key. It just assumes trial mode if you do.
