Activating Windows
Microsoft requires that you activate Windows to be able to use it. The activation process is
automatic when you connect Lyft to the Internet through an Ethernet cable. To proceed :
1. Make sure that Lyft is on and that the software is running.
2. Connect an Ethernet cable to Lyft.
3.
Connect the other end of your Ethernet cable to a network (local area network or other access
point).
4. Wait until a dialog box confirming the activation of Windows appears on screen. If you do not
activate Windows, every time you start Lyft, a message will remind you to do so. You have 30
days to activate Windows before it locks up.
Known Issue With System Updates/Upgrades
On some units, a blue Windows error screen may appear when you attempt to enter the system
recovery, which can cause the unit to start normally. Try performing the update procedure again.
