I bought a new laptop (Asus G75vx) with windows 8 single language pre-installed. When I first turned on the laptop I was directed to the installation process. It worked fine for the first few hours then I got a message in the action centre saying that windows is not activated. Once I go to the activation page I am notified that it will expire on 11 sep 2013 (exactly one month after purchase) and have two options, activate; and activate with new key. Since I don't have a key I choose activate and get the following message:
Windows couldn't be activated.
Error code: 0x8007232B
Error description: DNS name does not exist.
Please note that this is a personal laptop and I am not connected not any network nor did I ever attempt to connect it to any network. I tried to refresh windows without any change. So I then tried to reinstall windows and still got the same error.
Please help.
