  2. Windows 10 not getting activated.

    Hi Johncy,

    Welcome to Microsoft Community.

    I can imagine the inconvenience you have experienced. I will definitely help you with this.

    To guide you in right direction we want to know:

    • Have you activated your Previous version of Windows?

    Windows is not activated as your previous version of Windows, your device was not activated prior to upgrade to Windows 10

    We suggest you to follow the below steps and check:

    • Go to Start.
    • Select Settings .
    • Go to Update & security.
    • Go Activation .
    • Click Change product key.
    • Enter your Windows 10, Windows 8 or Windows 7 and click Next
      to complete activation.

    If the issue still persist get back to us.

    Keep us posted if you face any issues on windows in future. We will be glad to help you.

    Check the list of error codes
    here

    AMD FX OC'ers Club

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.
