Phone MS. It's easy and they don't give you grief or anything. They ask what you changed and then give you an activation code and that's it. Won't happen again until you change something else like a m/bd.

Just guessing, but you probably should've deactivated Windows on your Samsung 840 EVO before cloning it to your Adata SX 900 since the new SSD is considered new hardware. Just a thought. ;)

ON A 7 MONTH BREAK FROM THESE LTT FORUMS. WILL BE BACK ON NOVEMBER 5th.
