Hi, I have recently signed up for an ACM student account and therefore I've got an year-worth access to their DreamSpark Premium web store. I have been offered two different product keys for Windows 8 Pro, one each for: Microsoft Windows 8 Professional 32/64-bit (English) Microsoft Windows 8 Professional 32/64-bit (French) I have a few questions to ask. 1) Can I use the French product key to activate an English version of Win 8 Pro? 2) The DreamSpark Premium licenses seem to be just like the retail version of Win 8 and not upgrade licenses. Does that mean that if ever I re-install (via a clean install) Win 8 on my PC, I will be able to successfully activate my license using the same product key I used to install and activate earlier? 3) The DreamSpark EULA says I can install and use the Windows 8 Pro OS they offer on not more than 2 machines. Does that mean what I'm actually getting through my DreamSpark account are 4 licenses for Windows 8 Pro in case if the answer to my 1st question is a YES?
I have used one key to reinstall 4~5 times on same machine but different drives, everytime it just activates by itself upon complete installation.
Can I use the keys provided to us all on the ACM student account for Windows 8 pro to instal the windows 8.1 pro OS also?? Please share..
@Newtechie Yes you can absolutely use Windows 8 Pro Keys to activate Windows 8.1 like how i have activated mine ...its working absolutely fine
