I don't think insider or not makes any difference. I upgraded a OEM Windows 7 that had never been part of the insider program and did not use a Microsoft account just local account. Then wiped and installed fresh. It activated in both cases without ever using any connection to insider or Microsoft login account
With no quoted post of what your replying to I'm guessing you're replying to this... . Screen is black and he can't get into safe mode - you did read his post?
New Activations are off. If you were previously activated, those activation server checks still work. No you cannot use previous builds and activate at this time. For example you cannot activate build 10130. Also you have to upgrade from a qualifying OS on builds 10162 or 10166 to possible have any chance of activation, however there are other methods. ( Search is your friend). TBH I am do not know if you can currently go from win 8.1, 7 to builds 10162, 10166, or 10240, as I have been in the insider program since day one and all my HW IDs are now stored with MS. However once you upgrade successfully you can clean install
Activation servers are always running. The only thing that was disabled was the insider preview keys.
ms says they won't push it out all at once. they will do it in waves and after each wave they will stop and evaluate the process.
Exactly, can't reinstall the driver if I can't see anything... I will reinstall Win10 and retry, maybe it'll work this time who knows. If it matters I'm using 2x GTX 970 in SLI.
Hey guys If I activate a copy of windows 8.1 pro with kmspico, can I upgrade to windows 10 pro and stay activated I saw news that windows loader then upgrade would activate windows 10 So maybe this work as well Thanks in advance...
i did it yesterday in a vm but i have no idea if it would work as the base os. my base was already activated 10 so i'm not sure if that played a role in it.
I stick with Insider Program till AFTER July 29 and see what happen, I wonder why some ppl are paranoid over insider program opt out too soon.
guys joy. so my laptop just formatted from 10166 to 10240. it had bluetooth driver in 10166, and in 10240 cant find bluetooth at all. all the other laptops been fine. damn, i fixed it really quick in device manager.
I assume he is uploading the x64 now, but started with x86 because it's smaller Don't know why he is giving up on Magnet links, it was better than uploading to file sharing sites.
