Even if you talk to a live "idiot" at MS, you might get two questions. "Is this the only computer it is installed on?" &/or "Where did you get your software?" those are the easiest questions MS ever would ask, basically answer yes, and dreamspark, and you are good to go..... No need to be shaky since they can not prove if you are a student or not....
Glad to tell ya all the uni got the new package of keys (with PID -701-... this time, previous were all -700-... ), so we can continue to grab'em again!
Can't get pass "Gateway Timeout" when logging into Cernet server. Tried last nite and this morning. What did I do wrong? BTW, only 66.198.41.11 is working this morning. Thanks
Windows Server 2008 Enterprise product key... Sup, guys? I've used both IE7 & Firefox today and tried many proxies yet no luck! It did nothing to both browsers. Is there anyone out there who can spare me a Windows Server 2008 Enterprise brand NEW/unused product key? My e-mail is: [email protected] Merci!
@ GAVINEER and jbruneau If you PM me your Windows Live ID user name and password I'll get you a key and PM it back. I'm in New Zealand and don't seem to have a problem getting keys, just too busy to set up the Live ID's as well. ALSO, a big thank you to chianf092 for posting this in the first place. A very nice workaround! Quite surprised MS issued a second set of keys - thought they may have wondered how the first lot went so quick!
Hi TassieToo, Thank You for your assistance and offer! It is greatly appreciated! Please check your PM box to find my information. ***** And, yes, huge thanks to the poster for the information / workaround! Sweet ! Jonathan
Key Hi TassieToo Can u send me key too Thanks I v'e tried to do this myself a dozen times with no luck.
Glad it's still working for everyone, tomorrow I can grab another batch of keys for those that are still being blocked by their ISPs. Few tips based on the posts: 1. if at first you don't succeed, try and try again. Try different proxies & browsers too!! Sometimes it's not that your timing out, it's just everyone on here or who googles for Server 2008 key is making an attempt with the same proxies as well, which the proxies we have to use are not the strongest! 2. You will get "ONE" key per Windows Live ID, so if you want more, make more accounts! Don't worry about it being a valid email address, it's not like you are going to use them after you get what you want. 3. Yes Channel 8 @ MSDN is Dreamspark, you only need the China proxy when you select that China is your country, and you want to verify with the student accounts I have posted, if the Verification seems like it went through but your screen did not refresh, go back into your browser and turn off the proxy and hit refresh, MS verifies your Windows Live ID, not the IP address the request came from (just make sure you use a China proxy before and during verification), so you might be able to get your key that way as well. That might help the load on the China Proxies we have been using. 4. You might get a certificate error, if you do select "continue anyway" there is no need to be paranoid when you are using a proxy. I really appreciate everyone that has stepped up and helped those that no matter what they try they are still unable to get to the site, or through verification process at DreamSpark! Here I thought this post would last a couple weeks and here it has been going on strong for almost four months. Thank you MS for adding more keys "we love you for that" LOL
i tried of registering but "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage ", is coming. so pleae help me, please send me a Key.. thanks in advance.
I tried a lot of Chinese proxies and none worked unfortunately. Is there any chance some nice person could spare 2 keys for my Server 2008 machines as wel please? You would be my bestest friend forever and ever This forum rocks, well done folks
