Did an upgrade from 8.1 last night no problems at all, fully activated.

Just finished doing a fresh install from the ISB created by the MS tool and now getting : 0xC004C003 error telling me my key os blocked

Did you enter a key when you installed the fresh one? Your meant to leave it blank and just skip it.

That happens to me on my laptop activated on machine with upgrade...usb install won't activate

Is it normal to be getting a 500MB system reserved partition on my secondary drive?

That does sound weird. I just hit the activate button every few minutes until it finally went through.

Ah there we go, yours is the proper upgrade method, mine has acted like this was bought as retail and I had skipped the key.

Windows 8.1 reinstalled now, doing updates so hopefully will make some movement tonight with it

Yea just skipped it when it asked me for a key.

Possibly just the servers falling over? I don't want to install everything again now to only have to reinstall again if it wont activate.

EDIT, if I run the command to get the product key and enter that in the change product key bit I get a new error:

0xc004f050

Had this too. Did upgrade and all good, clean install and had that error code. Restarted system and it resolved itself. Said I had to be online to activate which I was, just assume it was MS servers being inundated

Well, just been looking at disk management. Created a "System Reserved" partition of 450mb. Didn't give it a drive letter. Rerunning the upgrade now.

Well I just downloaded THIS and extended my system partition from 100mb to 600mb. Hopefully should be enough for the install.

Pretty happy with the update was clean and simple so far everything works

So far I've successfully upgraded my Surface Pro 3 and work laptop to Win10 Pro.

Also just finished a fresh install using a newly downloaded ISO and retail key with no problems. My Sound Blaster Z is also working using Creative drivers installed during setup.

Only thing I can't get installed is the Intel RST drivers from the Asus site, and I can't find the AHCI version on the Intel site.

Don't you have to install the PAX driver on top of the official driver?

I used these for my Xfi Titanium
