    Hey guys,I need help, I've tried trouble shooter, and virtual helper, gotten no progress. I've upgraded my hardware with a new motherboard etc, but I'm unable to activate my windows 10.I originally bought windows 7, and upgraded it with the free upgrade to win 10 long ago. I changed my hardware, but I'm unable to see my current device when I select "I changed hardware" in the trouble shooter list of PCs. Not sure how to fix this, can anyone help?

    :)
