I have just replaced my old motherboard. Windows 8 is asking me to activate it but when I try to do so using my product code I am informed that the code is already being used by another computer and that I should buy a new one. As I am using the same computer I am stuck. What can I do?

Where did you get the computer? Is it prebuilt or OEM? How did you replace the motherboard?
