I got a free copy of Windows 8.1 from dreamspark but now its telling me it cant activate windows.

AS i said, i used my student email to make a dreamspark account, downloaded my copy of windows 8.1 for free, put it onto a bootable flash drive, and loaded it onto my newly built pc. Everything was ok for a couple of hours but now i have the activate windows watermark and when i got to try and activate windows it keeps telling me that it cant. Any help or suggestions?

Hi tjcreator,

I'm not sure how the DreamSpark entitlements are setup and activate , it is recommended to ask for help from DreamSpark support.
