I refreshed windows then the network prob was ok but I couldn't access my local drive C and I couldn't instal anything. so I did the windows 8 again. I was given the option in the troubleshoot menu. When I did it all seemed to be okay till I tried to activate it. Now its not activating. Its showing me &lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;error code: 0xC004F012&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Current edition: Windows 8&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Current product key: not available&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;When I click Activate it shows me:&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;0xC0000022&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;has not granted access right.&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;&lt;/P&gt;&lt;P&gt;Please help.&lt;BR /&gt;Sunny&lt;/P&gt;&lt;/BODY&gt;&lt;/HTML&gt;</description>
