    yes exactly, to install pro, you need a pro cd key... I think the retail key from the WZOR Pro will work fine.

    My confusion, I figured there was since there is separate VL ISO's on MSDN. I wonder what packets are sent back to the OS from KMS to tell Windows to activate. Wonder if someone can code a emulator to respond to said packets to activate Windows 8. :coffee:

    I can confirm this also. Just got back home and hash checked both against MSDN and SHA1 matches for both files. I just moved them to the torrent and forced a re-check and am now seeding them.

    Hello,

    Man, could you please then make an xdelta patch so we can get the WZOR's ISO image hashes to match up with the ones from MSDN?

    You would do this:

    > xdelta3.exe -s -e WZOR.iso MSDN.iso xdelta.patch

    A file called xdelta.patch will be created and can be used later on to patch the WZOR ISO image. ;)

    :)
    Thanks

    much faster for who actually? i dont think so... Chinese servers for europeans (and not only) is too SLOW, with many pops and hops between... even with mutliple http connections the speed is low, really very low....

    Do you have a Torrent client compatable with Magnet links? These are the same links I used and they worked without issue.

    The forum must have added it automatically because I copied and pasted exactly as is. Thanks for the heads up.

    Hi, mictlan,

    Thank you very much. It worked flawlessly: :thumbsup:

    xdelta patch (kindly provided by mictlan :worthy:) to convert WINDOWS.8.PROFESSIONAL.RTM.X64.ENGLISH.DVD-WZT ISO to MSDN ISO:
    Download at: (patch.7z - just 2.59 KB)

    Issue this command to patch the WZOR ISO:

    Code:
    xdelta3.exe -d -s WINDOWS.8.PROFESSIONAL.RTM.X64.ENGLISH.DVD-WZT\Windows_8_Pro_EN-US_x64.ISO wzor_to_msdn_91544.xdelta Win8_PRO_X64_MSDN.ISO
    I would appreciate it if you could create another one for the X86 edition. ;)

    Before doing that, it might be nice to know what's actually changed! Has anyone run a compare on the contents of the ISOs so we can know at the file level? For example, if the huge wim file hasn't changed, that's meaningful. If a Readme's changed, that's not.
