Windows 10 home activation "message suddenly shows up after Windows update"

0
0

Hello i bought a desktop Pavillion 500-112eo and a Envy 700-305no some years ago, bought were delivered with windows 8.1 preinstalled.

Some where on the way i were offered to upgrade both to windows 10 home by  Microsoft "automatic updates", and as i kept on use it i probably have reinstalled OS on the 500-112eo a few times but never had any problem with activation.

Some months ago i saw an activation message after one of microsoft endless updates, i did not think about it because i did not had any problems. But recently i got an ipnone and do need Windows Store to download iTunes, and that isn't working when Windows not activated.

Now i wonder was the 500-112eo supposed to be free to upgrade to windows 10 home or was it just a trial offered by Microsoft?
Because i simply no longer can activate it? I have downloaded Nirsoft productkey, and it generate a Windows 10 home serial from my "windows 8.1 key in bios?".
But the activation will not get through i get activation error 0x80080005 " something about it being interrupted, but from what i can read about the message it is simply that windows trial period ended?

So do i have to reinstall windows 8.1 or buy a new Windows10 home license i really think HP support assistant should show  what OS is valid on the Desktops. 

The other computer Envy 700-305no, have no activation issues but it came bundled with some software so maybe it has another type of license?

Product#: M9Z83AA#ABA

 

After Win 10 reset and installation of available Windows updates, I have the following error being reported with IMEI in the Device Mgr:

 

STATUS_DEVICE_POWER_FAILURE

 

Current driver version is: 11.6.0.1042

 

Hardware ID:

PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_8C3A&SUBSYS_2B2C103C&REV_04
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_8C3A&SUBSYS_2B2C103C
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_8C3A&CC_078000
PCI\VEN_8086&DEV_8C3A&CC_0780

 

I've installed the Intel Driver Support assistant and installed all available updates it finds. I've installed HP Support Assistant and done the same. The latest BIOS is installed. I've attempted at least the following solutions with no success:

I have multiple Prodesk PC's throughout my organization. I have a standard machine all set up and would like to capture an image of that using sysprep to be able to deploy it to other HP systems in my organization. my process will work like this

 

base PC is all set up for capture (running HP's included Win7Pro OS)

sysprep, shutdown

capture image with acronis

then use that acronis image to deploy to other systems in the organization.

 

The problem is that when i go to run sysprep on the base PC it will not complete. It runs for a while then returns the error below 

"A fatal error occured while trying to sysprep the machine" no other details are given. Is sysprepping an OEM image possible?

Keyboard stopped working after recent Windows 10 updates - no supported drivers error message.

I loaded a free Windows 10 OS about two years ago.  Stored my Pavilion away for about a year and recently started it up again. I get the main landing page, but the Keyboard does not work.  I have switched USB ports, switched keyboards, uninstalled devices, but cannot find a way to reload the Keyboard drivers.  Windows 10 now tells me the Pavillian is not supported.  HP tells me the are no windows 10 drivers, but I can get Windows 7 or 8.  Can't seem to get anything to work right now.  Very frustrated.

Already tried rebooting router and modem, other WiFi devices working. No network devices are available to choose from. Tied many of the suggestions from this forum, resetting network, restoring to earlier point, etc. not working. Only wants an Ethernet connection which is nearly impossible related to where the modem must stay.

Help, recovery fails, and finally Windows can't boot

0

Hello
I want to ask.
When I did HP Recovery Windows 10, suddenly my laptop died because the battery was weak, and I didn't realize my cable was pulled..

so recovery fails, and finally Windows can't boot,
the notice is "No Bootable device -- insert boot disk and press any key"


What is the best way to restore Windows and my data?

will my data be lost?

and can I restore the Windows 10 license.
because I didn't get a CD, because Windows was installed on the laptop

I really need a solution to this problem
