I purchased and installed win 8 upgrade version and installed to computer about 20 days ago. I had trouble with my computer shortly after and could only afford to purchase the part I needed today.
It was a clean install to the PC as I wanted it on a new HD to match new mobo etc.
So realising I hadn't activated it yet went to activation. I was told by my friend how I can activate this by going into registry etc.
problem is it tells me that the product key is being used by another pc? try a diff one or buy one...
at the bottom of activation screen it says error 0xc004c008
the activation server reported that the product key had exceeded its unlock limit.

Anyone help with this? . I don't want to mess with the registry now the activation screen is saying this. Copy is 100% genuine purchased by me directly from the shops, no one else has used this.
