Hi guys,

I'm experiencing the same prob.

I bought a lenovo y410p with windows 8 preinstalled. I upgraded it to windows 8.1 using a generic key. Now if I look into my windows 8 key it will show me the generic key I used (using Belarc Advisor). If I activate it online, the Error code: 0x8007007B comes out.. any help?

You probably installed a gVLK used to activate KMS based clients.

Get your key from the attachment....

Run the following commands:
slmgr -upk
slmgr -ipk xxxx-xxxx-xxxx-xxxx (Your windows 8 product key - not generic)
slmgr -ato.
