Hi Roy,

This error happens when you install windows with a wrong product key or it can not locate the KMS server. If you have a MSDN subscription you can solve this problem by setting the product key with these command line:

"slmgr –ipk <Product-key> (e.g. slmgr -ipk J3X3X-XY3XX-XX3XX-3XXXX-XX3XX)"

After that you should activate it in “Control PanelSystem and SecuritySystem”.
