    unable to activate windows


    just changed to a new hardware for better performance, I thought I could switch my Windows 10 Pro key to my new computer but no :


    "Unable to activate Windows. We can't activate Windows on this device. Try again later."

    Unable to Activate Win 8

    I got Win 8 isntalled on my file server, but I am unable to activate it with the key. Says the key is invalid. Since I work at microsoft I got a retail version from the employee store. I have been doing some reading, and to be able to activate Win8 with the key there needs to be a previous version of Windows installed for it to work. WTF, so you can't do clean installs?

    And the box says nothing about Upgrade version. Straight Windows 8 Pro.
