I ordered a copy of the windows 8 and it came today. When I went to install it on my new build everything went fine, but now that i'm trying to get everything situated i go to activate my windows and when I enter the product key it'll give me one of two messages
1.) This key didn't work. please check it and try it again. or try a different key.
or it says something among the lines of
2.) This product key was only meant for an upgrade and not a clean installation of windows.
my only concern is I bought this for my computer because it was meant to be a clean installation on my new build and i don't own another copy of windows. Do I need to uninstall it? Please let me know what you guys think, please and thank you!
