Windows deactivated after factory reset

I recently factory reset my computer because of an issue and out of no where it is now deactivated. No idea why this happened, as it has never happened to me before.

 

Factory Reset causing my Windows Activation to DEACTIVATE

Hey there,

Check my previous question if you'd like the context on as to why I did this:

I downloaded Windows 8.1 ISO file from the Official Microsoft Website without a USB, flash drive, or CD by "Installing Windows from a hard drive partition" then I reset my PC without the DVD. HOWEVER, by performing a factory reset it deactivated my Windows. I have the Windows (BIOS OEM Key) tried that, didn't work and 2) the Windows 8.1 Pro Product Key tried that, didn't work.

What do I do? I refuse to purchase another product key, all I did was a factory reset I don't understand why it deactivated.
