I replaced the motherboard on my desktop computer. All the drivers are updated on Windows 7.
However, Windows 7 Pro does not reactivate. Here are the steps I took
Phone activation: no longer supported. Calling number gave me a link to online activation.
Online went through security steps but before I could start activation steps I got an error as shown below. BTW, I have Android 15.
Can anyone help me with this? Should I just call Microsoft Support phone number?

Operating Systems: Windows 10 Home/Windows 7 Pro/Linux Mint
New:
MBD: Gigabyte GA-990FX-UD3 Rev 4.0
CPU: AMD FX-8350
RAM: GSkill RipjawsX 12GB (2x4GB,2x2GB)
Old:
MBD: ASUS M4N82 Deluxe
CPU: AMD Phenom II 960T X4
RAM: Corsair TWIN2X 8GB(4x2GB)
