windows 8 Windows 8 Live account login

[News Bot]

I installed Windows 8 Enterprise on my work laptop, created a local account and got all the drivers installed.  I added my live account which is a gmail account, no problems adding it.  The first time I tried to login, I got an error that I need

to be connected to the internet or something.  I was connected hardwired and had a valid connection on the local account.  Couldn't get it to work.  I ended up throwing an SSD into it and reinstalling windows.  Now when I even try to add

my live account or link it to my local account I get this error: 

Sign in with a Microsoft Account.  We're sorry, but something went wrong.  Your account wasn't changed to this Microsoft account.  Code: 0x800b0109.

I tried to look up that error code but only get things about Windows XP update issues.
