I bought a PC last year with Windows 8 already installed. I took advantage of the 8.1 upgrade and entered the code I had. I was fairly certain it had activated it. It seems not. I've only been getting these messages since Friday. It tells me my 8.1 will expire on August 2nd. I have tried the activation Key I was originally given and that doesn't work at all now.
I've checked the system page and it says Windows edition 8.1, at the bottom it says it's not activated. There is a Product ID of five letters/numbers in the groups then one of four.
Yet, setting winver into run it says that my product IS licensed. So, what is going on please. I'd greatly appreciate any help in sorting this out.
I am running on AMD A8-6500 3.50 GHz, with 8 GB RAM and 64bit OS - if you need this information, that is.
