"The product key is currently in use on another computer and cannot be used to activate Windows. A Windows product key can't be used on more computers than specified in the Microsoft Software License Terms.
every key i tested that was MSDN or Technet failed to activate.... every key real key for Windows 7 Ultimate Retail I tested that VAMT2.0 gave unknown status installed -verified - activated I found 3 and decided not to test every one. Remember not one of the MSDN or TechNet Retail keys worked.
I can confirm this, there is already one over at W7V that will use retail and another one that will use HP Slic 2.1 for bios modded computers, I am sure it will leak too. Not trying to brag but just saying just like before, the cat is out of the bag and soon will be out of the house so to say lol.
The reason is this build originally only accepted retail keys but special keys, the WIMs were modded so that is how we can get a pre-activated version that will activate via slic 2.1. I hope that makes sense. In theory loaders will work on the OEM pre-activated build but I cannot confirm that at this time.
so your point is that everyone who cannot activate with the provided keys must do a fresh install of the preactivated build?
Yes unfortunately, I am about to install the retail pre-activated one in just a minute, just gotta copy the iso content to my bootable flash drive lol. There is no way around this at this time.
pff I just had to reinstall the whole thing because I had a restart loop and now I can start all over again. I guess I'll just wait and hope a solution comes out
