    Reactivating Windows 10 after new hardware install


    I have got a windows 10 digital license attached to my Microsoft account. Today I made a hardware upgrade and now windows 10 won't reactivate. When I have gone through the troubleshooter it says unable to activate windows. The error code displayed why windows can't activate is 0xC004F025.

    Thank you for any replies

    :)

    Installing Windows 10 on New PC?

    I'm going to be building a new PC on Christmas and want to install Windows 10 on it. I have Windows 10 on my current PC, which I installed upgrading from 8.1 with the files on a USB. How do I go about installing a clean copy of Windows 10 on this new PC? I think I recall something about installing it once makes Microsoft recognize your hardware, but since this will be a PC I'm not sure what steps I need to take. Do I need to go 8.1 -> 10 or is there a method of going directly to 10?
