    I recently bought an Asus Eeebox PC from a bloke on adverts, I want to use it for college work but also to install Kodi and use it as a media machine.

    The PC works fine but when I bought it the bloke said that it had windows on it and that it was ready to be upgraded from windows 7 to 10, but when I got it home it only had windows that needed to be activated! And is nearly due to pass the 30 day activation time.
    I don't have a licence key myself and it will cost me over €100 to buy a licence which is something I can't afford right now, so I was wondering is there anyone on boards that might have a licence that they could share with me? I know they offer a family licence so you can use it on several machines and was hoping someone had a spare one of these?
    It would be really appreciated.

    Is there a subreddit specifically for this?
