LOL glad it worked for you, so far I have gotten about 75 keys off that site and gave 98% of them out for those that couldn't get this to work. When I originally found this back in October, I thought it would be dead in a month, and since this board had given me the tips to add a SLIC to my bios and gave me the tips to make an OEM Server 08, I figured this was the best way to repay everyone. Now if someone can find the Enterprise OEM SLP Key this will be the best!
merlinghq might be right. I just tried and got this for Windows Server 2008. There is no key available for this product. Visual Studio and Windows Server 2003 works fine. Btw, the proxy is 123.127.41.44:3128
Thanks for this info, but it looks like Techno and merlinhq may be right. I keep getting no keys available when trying to pull one up. Does anyone have any spare Server 2008 keys? Thanks
Well, i can tell you, during the last two months they were giving out s2k8 keys in alphabetic order, and in the last two days the keys were starting with Y. Since Z is not a proper letter, apparently that was the end, until they will receive another party of keys from MS.
Looks like they are out of keys. My last one did start with Y. Maybe give it a few days for MS to give them some more.
Taken me the best part of two days to run through the process and I get the above error (basically no keys left). Any chance anyone has a spare for 2008 kicking around they could pm me? Cheers!
Yep, There is no key available for this product. You can still download the ISO though... me waits another batch of keys!
Not bad it lasted a couple months Well hopefully they will restart it up again, so those that haven't gotten one still can
That's great to hear because I've dealt with the operators on numerous occasions for other products for my clients.
chianf092 thank you very much!!! I managed to grab a key before they ran out and activated my Server (standard) without any problem. Does anybody know? If I perform full partition backup using Windows Server Backup feature and then restore it, would my activation still be good or I need to reactivate Windows?
Might have to do phone activation, never know since I haven't tried to restore my partition since installing. Glad you were able to grab a key before they ran out, I am wondering if they just shut it down because of this post for awhile and then wait a little and start back up again.
I've never done it before and fill kinda shaky. I just don't know what to say to the operator. Will they ask tricky questions?
Use the automated phone system for activation. Tested and working... Doesnt ask you for anything but the numbers from your activation dialog.
