Didnt change SSD from yesterday windows was fine installed new mobo etc today and now it says my windows has been activated on too many pcs but its only installed on my computer and only ever has been is there a way to crack it to stop asking? really dont want to have to ring microsoft and go through all that hassle of them doing it.
 
It's a 2 minute phone call that keeps you license legal. Your PC generates a code which you give to MS, they generate another code which you type in. It's hardly hassle.
 
ive never phoned MS before so not sure what their customer service is like but every other time ive phoned a call centre even explaining the problem is hassle haha. But ill try ringing them tomorrow if its that simple.

It's an automated line, you'll only end up speaking to someone if it can't be resolved via their automatic system.
