Windows 8 activation fails with Error: 0x8007007B
Windows 8, like previous versions, requires online activation to
verify that your key is legitimate. However, some users upgrading from
Windows 7 have had problems with the code from the previous version of
Windows becoming “stuck” and, since it’s for Windows 7 and not Windows
8, activation fails.

To solve this you need to use the command line. Do a Windows search
for “cmd” and make sure you have elevated privileges – you may need to
right-click and use “Run as administrator.”
Now type these commands:
slmgr.vbs /ipk XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX
slmgr.vbs /ato
In the first command, the “XXXXX” characters should be replaced with
your Windows 8 product key. Your activation should now complete
successfully.
Blurry or fuzzy text
You may notice that some programs display poorly on your Windows 8
PC. This typically is a problem with older software which was designed
for screens that have a lower resolution that those today. Windows will
often try to scale the software to a higher resolution, but not everyone
likes the blurry appearance that results.
To turn this off, right-click on a program’s executable, go to the
Compatibility tab and check the box for “Disable display scaling on high
DPI settings.” Then restart the program.
If your problem is with icons and general text, rather than programs
themselves, you may simply need to scale the Windows UI. Do a Windows
search for Display and, in the menu that opens, change to a larger or
smaller UI scale. You can also customize text scaling with the “set
custom text size” link on the left.
