    When did you install key

    After you went into RE and ran MPC.bat

    GUYS!

    Please communicate regarding complete testing not just this or that hence leaving out much information

    Follow instructions!

    Describe all steps and what happened

    Thanks

    After I went into RE and ran MPC.bat, I followed exactly your instructions.

    1. Rearmed all 2 times, Windows is fine.
    2. Copied MPC.bat to the HDD root, fine.
    3. Booted into RE and runned MPC.bat, fine.
    4. Booted into Windows again, fine.
    5. Runned MPC, selected Product Key, error 0x80070426.

    So you had clean install?

    Then ran out 2 rearms? (With no errors)(Then used slmgr /dlv to confrim 0 rearms)

    And did you get 3 success msgs?

    And you restarted fine?

    Default key is the same so why is it causing error?

    Thanks

    Yes, yes, yes and yes.

    According to slui.exe, error 0x80070426 means "Service is not started".

    Here is how we rearm in W7

    Code:
    slmgr /rearm
    net stop sppsvc
    net start sppsvc
    That is a discovery of MasterDisaster so no reboot is needed to rearm hence because of IR5 development we now can rearm inside windows

    What unisntalls key in W7 is resetting rearms in RE like MPC and IR5 do

    I think I'll put rearm option in MPC on first post

    there was no need to reboot or try this code.
    i just used
    Code:
     slmgr /dlv 
    to see what happened, seems like it un-installs rather than re-arming.

    I know my rearm concept I dev'd it

    W7 needs reboot to complete rearm until this

    Code:
    slmgr /rearm
    net stop sppsvc
    net start sppsvc
    If W8 doesn't then that is new!

    Am posting new MPC on first post with rearm option

    So testers after rearming 2 times can post before/after pics

    with

    Code:
    slmgr /dlv

    when you boot select the language then before you select custom or upgrade press shift & F10 a cmd screen will appear type the following:
    1-diskpart
    2- select vdisk file=path of vdisk file
    3- attach vdisk

    then you can repair it

    After running MPC and receiving error 0x80070426 in trying to reinstall product key at the end of the steps, my test PC is randomly rebooting. Maybe a new way MS found to keep users out from IR5?

    Also in your new test version, rearming gives System error 5.

    well. the thing is , this new kernerl or whatever OEM 3.0..
    when you try to rearm, your product key gets uninstalled, and then you aren't allowed to install anymore keys, slmgr /dlv show's nothing, properties show "windows activation id not avaliable..", etc..
    so the thing is. are all the re-arms 3 in 1? why does it still show as 2 rearms remaining?
    i tried re-arming WITH spscc service turned off, it shows 1 rearm remaning against the normal shown as 2 rearm remanings.
    still when you rearm, it uninstalls the product key and things like above mentioned..

    Here rearming was normal, the process to reset the rearm counter that is giving all those headaches.

    Product key install and now the random reboots I'm facing. It was running 7989 very fine before doing all the steps to reset the rearm counter.

    And yet MPC doesn't auto boot into or out of RE :yoda:

    And random PK installs wtf :suicide: (Did you use MPC to install PK)

    Yet no accounts of if rearming put to 0

    Then reset to 2 via MPC.bat placement/run via RE

    Glad I started this early
