wiped My HD and tried to load W7 ultimate, but the built-in modem will
not load. I then loaded w10 and tried to use My W7 activation to
activate W10, and was refused. W10 works, but get the activation
reminder on the desktop.

Any thoughts on working this issue?
Must activate 7 before upgrading to 10 or you are out of luck

Naaaaa....The call from MS took care of the problem, and now I have an
activated issue of W10 pro 64 bit. ^^
The one I was working on today wouldn't even install 10 because 7
wasn't activated - at least Win10 upgrade says it isn't activated.

I'll see when I get back to it - likely tomorrow.


OK, it's tomorrow Clare...

Didn't get to it yet.

Got to it - something wrong with the win7 install - it does not see
the key as valid - get 0xc004e003 error.

Reinstalling win 7 pro - see what happens this time. It's an older
computer - with an AMD processor - so I'm not going to waste much time
on it. If it doesn't work this time I'll "bin" it.
