Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/massgravel/Microsoft-Activation-Scripts/issues/9

I just built a brand new machine, and installed Windows using the install media from their website (skipped putting in a key during install). Before even trying to activate, it never showed the 'Activate Windows' watermark, and it set my customizations when I added my Outlook account. However, when I went to activate it with HWID 1.4, it failed with error 0xC0EA000A.

I tried troubleshooting steps and a manual install with the same error. In the About page of my device, it has a product ID of 00326-10000-00000-AAXXXX; I'm not sure what this means.

The activation troubleshooter says 'It looks like the hardware on this device has changed' with the same error code as the HWID activator.

Is this a problem with my version of Windows, the servers or the activator?

You could always try using KMS38 I guess
