    It is the same board as mine so he would have a retail key probably that was converted to a Digital license. The bios for those boards do not have keys injected into them. So far no luck with my attempts.

    I flashed back. Did not help. Someone else did so and was lucky enough to have his resolved, even after flashing up again.

    Just a separate question: Did someone already tried flashing the previous (older BIOS) back into the motherboards, to see if it activates then??

    Hello everyone, i am just wondering why the screenshots i have just seen in these pages, seem they have the same Partitial Product Key:

    Namely 3V66T. Since i know i got my key from official microsoft, and you guys probably also. This is weird for me.

    Also same problem. Did a bios update yesterday on my Asus Rog Strix B550-A board and will no longer activate. Had no problems with activations for years.
