Hey, what do you think? I've had my new Windows version for about six months, but my motherboard stopped working. I swapped it out yesterday and today Windows is acting weird, saying "register me." I tried the troubleshooting steps but didn't get any results. It mentioned Win 10 is fine, but I'm not sure if visiting the support team will help right now. Should I call them to explain what's happening?
Do you have digital activation enabled? Then you can log in to your MS account, check your registered devices, remove your previous PC if needed, and re-activate your current one. For key activation, follow the same steps using SUI and select the phone option.
Removing the PC from the account advanced me a bit in the activation process, but I keep receiving messages saying the MS servers are down. I'll just have to wait! Thanks.
I've decided on cleaning the primairy drive. Somehow there where already 3 types of fixed partitions! delete delete format delete! Atm I'm waiting for the dreaded 1803... It went foul earlier this day, creating a critical process death after a failed installation... its been 3 hours already if not more.. The only thing that keeps me going is a drive that's under 90% load all of the time!
The setup requires three partitions: one for Windows, another for the UEFI boot process, and a third for Windows Recovery tools. There are issues with version 1803—possibly 1809—and you need comprehensive information beyond just it being problematic. Ensure your system functions correctly before proceeding. If you must replace the motherboard or suspect other hardware faults, investigate further to identify the root cause.
Oke... well that's good to know! i'm not sure about how many partitions excist at the moment but I can report my system works oke now. The only weird thing atm is that my bios reports 350 rpm on the cpu fan is a dangerous value ( shown in red ) and even stops me from booting windows ( I now have it on 560 rpm which still labels as red but permits me to start up the system.. I had to ignore the cpu error that shows when you boot up your machine ) Anyway I'm not sure what went wrong. I was just looking at the screen while it was at 60 % when it suddenly decided it was time for a restart... after restarting everything went wrong and I started the procedure all over again. I will wait with activating indeed.. it should have worked proper in one try but like this waiting seems to be the sensefull act.. Thank you
