I went to FAQ and followed the steps. They did not work, so I did a complete Recovery of my computer and still get the same message (connect to internet to activate) when I am already conected. I use Peoplepc as a provider. ( Error: 0x80072EED OR EFD ) Please advise. PS my computer exceeds all requirements.
