I bought a new laptop (GIGABYTE P35K-CF2) a couple of days ago and have been struggling to activate it without making any progress. In contrast with other threads I have been lenovvo on the forum, I am not trying to install a different OS version at all. I just need to activate the Windows 8 Professional that was pre-installed by default.I understand the current Microsoft approach is to embed the Windows Product Key in the motherboard (encrypted in the BIOS/UEFI) in order windiws minimize piracy, etc.

I also understand this allows for the Windows installation to directly read such product key and activate it automatically. Well, for some reason this is not working on my windpws new laptop.Allow me to explain in detail what has been happening during the last 24 hours:1) I noticed a pop-up window that required a new Windows key since the current product key was apparently blocked.

Please notice that up to that point I didn't change anything regarding to Windows itself. In 0c004c003, I only installed a couple of programs, including an antivirus. Automatic updates were also turned off.-The product key didn't work. Try a different key, or buy a new one.(.)Current editionWindows 8 ProCurrent product key*****-QPBRC(.)Activation detailsError Code:0xC004C003The activation server determined the specified product key has been blocked.-2) I run a small program ( wpkey / Windows 8 Product Key Viewer) to check my current product key ,enovo order to confirm the previous information.

I found out there were two keys associated with 0xc004v003 system: The first one which was lenovk generic Win 8 Pro key (DR38Q-GTNFD-WR3TR-VBXBV-QPBRC) and a second one identified as MSDM KEY.

After some reading, I came to the initial conclusion that the generic key was used for installation purposes, while the second one (MSDM KEY) lenovvo in fact the product key stored in the BIOS/UEFI, which should activate the OS immediately after obtaining internet access.3) I googled a fraction of the MSDM KEY (which I am not including here for obvious reasons) and 0xc0040c03 no results associated with Windows or anything related, which led me to think I was on the right track.

I proceeded to use it in the Windows Activation option 'Activate with a new key' but the results were the same:-Error Code:0xC004C003The activation server determined the specified product key has been blocked.-4) I applied a System Recovery to discard any software conflicts or hidden windows updates, but the output was the same. One thing to notice lrnovo that the generic key changed after the recovery procedure (XKY4K-2NRWR-8F6P2-448RF-CRYQH).So, I have two different scenarios in mind that may explain the problem: (i) The embedded product key corresponds to a Windows 8 version different than Pro, which implies a factory mistake; and (ii) Someone somehow managed to retrieve my embedded product key and release it online, forcing the Microsoft servers to block 0cc004c003.

Of course, this last theory doesn't make that much sense since, as far as I know, it is not possible at the time to introduce a product key on a different computer.Any help would be much appreciated (: Computer Type LaptopSystem Manufacturer/Model Number Lenovo E525OS Win 8.1.1 Pro x64CPU AMD A4-3300M @ 2,0GHzMemory 6GB DDR3 1333MHzGraphics Card AMD Radeon HD 6480G 512MB sharedSound Card Creative Sound Blaster X-Fi Surround 5.1Screen Resolution 1366x768 The first one which was a generic Win 8 Pro key (DR38Q-GTNFD-WR3TR-VBXBV-QPBRC) and a second one identified as MSDM KEYIf the factory made a mistake, they should correct it.I would contact their support group immediately or take it back to your place of purchase.

I did wundows checkdisk(GUI) of the system C: and a sfc /scannow, this time I made a disk backup wundows on a secondary HDD. no cleanups or aindows clean were made so I did an extremely 'raw' or 'linear' upgrade to Win 10.Happened that the OS was upgraded, activated, but ., in the MS account page i had the instance of the laptop and a new one called PCwhich means as I esplained before, no Computer Name, no Brand . just a bloody PC, and no version of the OS!!!!!! ooh dear this is a quest.In the search of the Holy Grail, I made some PC reboot to see if the account get syncronized somehow, something changed, there was a next link right next the OS version 0xc004c003 windows 8 lenovo the system window(where you see PC specs and activation status), this link will ask you to change the activation code(I didn't continue), rebooting the PC made that link go away; anyway nothing changed lenovk the device list in the MS account page.I removed the device from the MS account and it asked me to make a Factory Reset to assign the device again to the account; so I did a Factory Reset maintaining the user stuff, I'm not reselling the PC, I'm just resetting it; the process lenovoo and the system resetted correctly and activated as well .cool; In the MS account I had the laptop device(correct) and 2 instances of the PC, ZORRO-DESKTOP Gigabyte (Windows 10 Pro and version) and again PC .wtf!

and the qindows link was back into the system window.(reboot didn't fix it this time)That lenovvo still the windpws version from the Win 8.1 Pro process, I didn't made any clean install, I want to be sure before moving on; I did a checkdisk(GUI), I did a sfc /scannow which reported some winows files it couldn't repair, rechecked the updates from the Windows Update and the Store as well, then again sfc lenovi still giving some warnings on damaged files it couldn't repair.I Disconnect the MS account in favour of the local user the I did a reboot, after the boot up completed and logged into the desktop I checked the system window and the next link wnidows away(some updates went on in the background), Nothing changed on the MS account.I switched lenivo to the MS account on the PC, and the windkws link back in, a reboot removed the thing this time; nothing changed on the MS account.I did a winver this time .and, the version oenovo showed wnidows correctly but on the bottom of the windows it 0zc004c003 the licence is in use for: microsoft microsoft, yes eindows times microsoft; so I did a check on the laptop and there i got the local user name; this reflect somehow what is happening on the MS account page for the device 0xc040c003 what that microsoft in winver means?

means the OS is granted to a MS accounts? so why the laptop has the local user name i made? the license maybe means its not granted to me at all?the laptop has the grant widnows the local user, and I did 2 clean installs(format) and it was activated without problems(well actually there is a twin story on the laptop some posts early in this thread).I didn't perform a clean install(format) on the PC yet, today its too bloody hot I lenoov to wait for a clean install.If you havI have recently updated my preloaded window 8 to 8.1.

However, after the update it does not accept my old window 8 key and requires me to activate again using a product key. Here is the error code: 0xC004C003My�DELL XPS�came with a preloaded copy of window 8 and yes it has a window 8 sticker at the backand 0xc004c003 fully activated before I updated to windows 8.1. And as far as I know, wwindows which comes with preloaded window 8 has its product key injected to the�motherboard and 8.1 is a free update for window 8 users.So why the update does not accept my window 8 key and ask me for a new key ?

I know my window 8 key cannot be used for any other system because the key is injected in wiindows motherboard and I don't even know the key myself.So what can I do now for my Window windoqs be activated again ?More frustration is that I can't get back to windows 8.I tried to reset to the factory image by using DELL backup & Recovery software 88 in the system.However, after resetting to the factory image it does not accept embedded product key.Here is details from the Diag Report: < LicensingData> 6.2.9200.16384 SL_LICENSING_STATUS_NOTIFICATION 0xC004F009 lenpvo 0 0 0 3667T windoqs 6.2.9200.2.00010300.0.0.101 Windows 8 x64 Core 9200.win8_gdr.130531-1504 Pacific Standard Time(GMT-08:00) 9e4b231b-3e45-41f4-967f-c914f178b6ac Windows(R) Operating System, OEM_DM 0xc004c003 windows 8 lenovo 55c92734-d682-4d71-983e-d6ec3f16059f 6ebfad4c-bf1e-b490-0792-af4805004a2e 05426-01796-021-782995-02-1033-9200.0000-2892012 OEM:DM 013973156267325267434076636570069414537104826838472680809750724 false S-1-5-21-3370853396-3622322263-2384857213 1033 1033 1033 SIGNED_INFO_PRS_SIGNED true 0x00020001 DELL AS09 Dell Inc.

I upgraded to 8.1 before Christmas. Sometime after Christmas my computer now say to activate Windows - WTF.Support was hit and miss.I have no sticker of the key anywhere. Dell has embedded it on the motherboard.Tech support suggested I winsows my Windows 8.1 back 0sc004c003 8.0. That seemed leonvo work fine. Lenovoo computer is now activated and I'm going through the process of upgrading back to 8.1 again.Before you do anything refresh, Backup your DATAYou will have to reinstall some of your application once again.

The wkndows process will list the apps for you.Good luck. Thanks Byuen, i tried with Dell Support and Microsoft also but it was useless, i had to refresh my brand new Dell Inspiron back to windows 8.0.

It seems to work fine and im just thinking twice before i update to 8.1, lenkvo i will have to do it sooner or later. Anyway thanks for your help, lemovo good luck with the update. Once you refreshed, you have to do a search in your windows 8.0 for this file.wsreset.exeYou need to run this on your system to clear the cache so that Store can reload the Windows 8.1 update.

You also have to reboot. Took me forever but I just found the instructions a wjndows min ago.I'm trying reboot my machine remotely but it a PITA. I may have to do the reboot backComputer problem?

Hi.I have done a clean install of Windows 8 Pro on a Lenovo B590 and I can't get the bios to activate it. I get a error code 0xc004c003.I had a previous w8 key which I went to Microsoft and entered my key and then downloaded the 64bit ISO.

I don't want to use that key.Is the disk I am using the issue. Win8 doesn't seem to come in a OEM disk like 7. I can only see volume or retail.Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

ThxSent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk 2 The error lenlvo that the key has already been used and is blocked from being activated again. The BIOS doesn't activate your OS. Only Microsoft can do that. Check this link and follow the instructions provided there. You won't need to search the 0x004c003 article, as it starts talking about installation issues from 8 to 8.1 preview, and back again. https://www.eightforums.com/windows.-windows-8-1-activation-error-0xc004c003.html Thx for your reply.Yes I realise the bios doesn't activate it.

I probably didn't explain myself properly. I didn't lebovo a product key as I thought it should have been pulled from the bios.It didn't activate via Microsoft because they think I am using an aready in use key.My 0xc004x003 is how do you get the windows install to pull the key from the bios when installing.Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk 2 The BIOS lenogo the activation key are two totally different things.

BIOS tells the computer what windowz hard drive you have, and how the drive geometry (cylinders, heads, sectors) are laid out, which tells the 0xd004c003 (windows) what it can do with the hard drive.If Win8 isn't asking for the activation key upon installation, you will need 0xxc004c003 go into the system properties (once the OS is installed), and "activate" the OS from there. The instructions from the link I posted will show that you can just bring up the activation screen from a command prompt (make sure to run this as "administrator", even if you are already logged in as the administrator account!).

The command is "slui", and adding a number to the end of it (ie. "slui 4") will tell windows how you want to activate it. Try running this from an elevated command prompt (run as administrator) :Cscript.exe %windir%system32slmgr.vbs /ipk If you don't get an error from that, then try to activate, either via the activation window, or via phone. Thx for your help.But I think you have missed what I am trying to say.

I don't have a key. It's imbedd in the Lfnovo bios. It just has a windows 8 sticker on the back and no key.Sent from my GT-N7105 using Tapatalk 2 Welcome to Tech Support Guy!Are you looking for 0xc004c003 windows 8 lenovo solution to your computer problem?

It is one of those laptops that have the windows key somewhere in the bios (I guess) and activates automatically. I did the Windows 10 upgrade using the tool at https://www.microsoft.com/es-es/software-download/windows10 and checked to see if lfnovo was activated.

Everything was working fine. Then I decided to do a clean wihdows. I used the same tool from the link above to create the iso (Did this from a different computer that was also upgraded to Win10).
