My pc had 8.1 pre-installed on an internal SSD.
An upgrade to windows 10 seemed to cause all sorts of application and operation malfunctions, so I tried the roll back to 8.1 feature.
There were still problems, so I re-installed 8.1 from the pcs installation discs.
There was no activation key on the case so I was given a temporary one to complete the install. I was informed that the system would take care of activation using the valid key in the UEFI.
However that has not worked and I have no valid key for activation. I gather this due to a change by MS.
PCS support is offline till next Monday!
I would be grateful for any suggestions.
I would say that people should avoid SSD discs as a substitute for the old HDD, unless they really know a lot more than I do. Also avoid windows 10, the upgrade utility behaves like a virus. If you are a pc user on 7, then stay on it, 8 and 10 are bad news.
