Installation: valid key but error 0XC004E003

Hello,

I reinstalled Windows 7 Ultimate over the same version.
Previously, I retrieved the activation key for my Windows using the SIW software.
Now I have a problem activating my new Windows 7 Ultimate.

Error code 0xC004E003

As if this serial number were still in use on my old W7 Ultimate.

I have 3 days left to activate it, yet my activation key is valid!
Thank you for your help.
Configuration: Windows 7 / Chrome 25.0.1364.172

    Are there no other solutions? Like booting into the old version that I haven't uninstalled and stopping the license manually?

    Thanks for the help.

      ==> the problem is that I no longer have access to the old version, so how can I disable it?

      ==> like boot into the old version that I haven't uninstalled and stop the license manually?


      Isn't there a problem between these two sentences?

      I no longer have access to the old version because I don't know how to do it ;)
      I'd like to know if it's possible, I want to avoid calling Microsoft

      Thank you

      So, here you go, the second option in my previous post, call Microsoft (you'll get a robot) and the robot gives you numbers to enter... and that's it.

    so you tried to activate windows on your pc that can't connect to internet? ... -_-

    from another pc, search for the drivers for your current pc (especially the drivers for the Ethernet controller and the Wifi module (if you don't have installation cd)

    Then, once you've found (from another pc) the appropriate drivers for your hardware, you just have to install them on Your PC

    then activate windows by doing "left click on the Start button, right click on Computer, click on Properties, and then on Activate Windows now.

    That's the instruction. Where do we sign? ... it's there, idiot; sign!

      According to the device manager, there is a missing driver for my network controller, but I can't find out its name, even with siw (I can't find it)

      the network card issue must come from there

      thank you

      What is the brand of your PC? Or the model of your motherboard?

      You can also install SandraLite 2012 or Aida to get all the information about your hardware.

      Or if you have an external Wi-Fi key, plug it into your PC, then search via www.ma-config.com and install your new drivers.

      Ah, so did you buy your license in a store? In a boxed version online? From a professional or an individual?

      You need to go see or contact the seller,

      It's a seller who assembled my PC (piece by piece)
      I don't know how he obtained the license
      can't we reinstall a simple W7 ourselves? How do I contact the bot you mentioned?

      Thank you

    Can't we simply uninstall the old version of Windows?

    This way I could use my serial number.

      you can uninstall your other version, but the license will still be activated

      So Korben offers us a little tutorial ==> here<==


      and if you cannot deactivate your license because you can no longer access your OS, you just need to call Microsoft support and they will give you a series of numbers to enter in the activation assistant and the license will be activated

    Hello,
    on the given page, they say this:
    "To open Windows Activation, click the Start button, right-click on Computer, click on Properties, and then on Activate Windows Now.?

    Click on View other activation methods."

    There is no "View other activation methods", just Buy a new key, enter another key, and get help from Microsoft.
