Default O.T. Missing Folder/files


The 8500 hung up again, twice! I was copying a file
and also trying to delete a file and both times the 8500
hung up again on me. These are things I do all the time
and I believe it's acting finicky because I lost my activation
code.

I had to power off both times and the last time I just shut
it down, then restarted it after about 20 minutes or so.

When I call Microsoft I give them my product key of course
so they can activate it or walk me through the steps to activate
is that correct?

Once they activate it can I use the #4 hd as is and create a
clone? Also #3 should then connect if it finished cloning
correctly despite the 'Invalid Windows OS' message.

Is there anything else I should do?
