Windows 10: Windows 10 activations and customer support hanging up on me

I've recently upgraded the hardware (motherboard and CPU) on my existing home PC that had windows 10 installed (upgraded from windows 8.1) and now have to reactivate my windows.


I am being hit with the 0xC004C003 error code and the troubleshoot option doesn't seem to help but still shows my computer listed under my Microsoft account.


The Microsoft help app doesn't seem to be able to help me and every time I call customer support about the issue I am hung up on after being put on hold to have my call connected.


Does anybody know of a way to reactivate windows with this error code or a better way to contact customer support that won't have me being hung up on every time?

Windows 10 pro activation

Hi,

If you upgraded to Windows 10 for free and ended up in a non-activated state, try following these steps:

• Select the Start button, then select Settings > Update & security >
  Activation.
  
• If your activation status is Connect to the Internet to activate Windows, select Activate to manually activate Windows. If this doesn’t work, you can contact customer support.

For your reference, we suggest to check the article below when updating Windows 10

Windows 10 Activation (Insider)

I did a full clean install of Windows 10 a while back and it will not activate. I didn't do a clean install from Windows 7/8/8.1 it was from Windows 10 (activated) so I expected it to activate just fine since it was fine before hand.

My Windows 10 license wasn't created from a previous Windows 7/8/8.1 key I got it from signing up to be an insider back in Nov of 2014. I installed a preview build on my laptop from the insider program and it worked just fine and it automatically upgraded to newer and newer preview builds and then to the full release automatically, fully activated and working fine. I did a full clean install not long ago (expect it to go through without issue since it was working before) and now it will not activate and I can't find any info on how to get it to activate and I can't seem to find the insider Windows 10 key.

Microsoft online support was useless and the gave me the toll free number to tech support.. I am currently on the phone waiting, they said it could be a 1hr 30min wait.. sigh.. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
