Hi,
I have brand new Asus G75vx with windows 8 preinstalled. I switched it on and it gave me the windows installation process. and for the first couple of hours it seemed fine. I installed my ski drive and dropbox and started transferring the files. Then I noticed that I have a message in the action centre that windows could not be activated. once I went to the activation page it says :"Windows is activated. Your Windows license will expire soon". It shows a product key (first half is stars ****) and says that it will expire in one month from yesterday (the date of purchase). I have two options, one just to activate and the other to activate with a new key (which I don't have). When I try to press activate it gives me the following error:
Windows couldn't be activated.
Error code: 0x8007232B
Error description: DNS name does not exist.
I researched the code and it seems to be related to a LAN network error. However, my computer is personal and there is no networks other than my WiFi connection, which is on and working.
How do I solve this? Thank in advance for your help.
By the way, I've tried to reinstall windows, but it still had the same problem.
