I bought an SSD, and cloned my Win7 to it and tried to do the upgrade. Gave me an error code C1900204 and just said "Installation Failed." I tried 2x more to D/L, same result.
When I rebooted, it took a looong time, then came back and said I didn't have a valid Windows product...and I can't even log into my desktop!
Now...I've backed up everything to my 3Tb external, and I got back online using my OLD drive, but before I try and upgrade AGAIN and fail, only for Windows to tell me on my SECOND drive it's not valid, whether anyone's got any suggestions?
I HAVE verified the ProgramFilesDir registry key is pointing to C:\Program Files AND I am (almost?) positive I DO have a valid product...I mean...I couldn't have activated it if it wasn't valid, right?
Appreciate the help, as always!
