    Would guess it´s due to changes in Volume Licensing Channel in Win 8.1. We´ll have to wait a moment till it´s more official, no clue how MS will solve this :hmm:.

    Unfortunately swapping Tokens is a bad hack, if they come from a different system. Those tokens contain specific activation info of the original system.

    However, reusing your tokens on the same system should present no problem? If I understand you correctly.

    This is the million dollar question, and will be answered most like shortly before or after GA :D.

    Keep in mind: They changed their Activation Storage Startegy a bit with Win 8.1. CODY and Josh are working on that :good3:.

    I'm still having problems with phone activation as I don't have any kind of 'legit' retail keys. I was just trying to use the ones off the internet found on PasteBin. Am I doing something wrong, cause all I ever get is the message on the phone saying, "the installation key is not verified".
