working on the GF's old dell, she has a valid 8.1 key she purchased
run the upgrade assistant, it comes back that the hardware is good
click next and it says windows 8 is not available for sale in your country/region
region is USA, checked region settings...W T F ??
google the problem and everybody says to set compatibility mode on the assistant to XP SP3, but the box is already running XP SP3 so that does not appear in the compatibility mode dropdown options
what the actual flip?? not available?
shaking my head
