Hi,
My laptop comes with Windows 8.1 pre-installed, ShowKeyPlus seems to confirm it:
But when I install Windows 8.1 (Core) it does not detect the key. I used the generic key to install. When I try to activate with the key from BIOS it says "That key can't be used to activate this edition of Windows. Please try a different key."
I wonder what version can it be used to activate? Windows 8.1 Pro?
I have tried booting the installation media and use the [BIOS] key there but it won't work.
Here's the WDT Diagnostics Report:
I have considered the possibility that maybe the key is for Windows 8.1 with Bing, but from what I read in other threads it seems that ShowKeyPlus would display "CoreConnected" instead of just "Core" on OEM Edition.
Note: The recovery partition was wiped clean, and I can't, unfortunately, use it to reinstall Windows.
Thanks in advance.

I have considered the possibility that maybe the key is for Windows 8.1 with Bing, but from what I read in other threads it seems that ShowKeyPlus would display "CoreConnected" instead of just "Core" on OEM Edition.
Note: The recovery partition was wiped clean, and I can't, unfortunately, use it to reinstall Windows.
Thanks in advance.
