Is your KMS server available on same IP as previously? No firewall restrictions? If all is OK then the client will pick it up the activation again from KMS server sebus
Actually I migrate KMS server, I can't activate the server I have no problem activating the clients from my VMware Image. Ritchie
I know the reason, I'm searching for a way to activate. I tried several loaders but then Virtualbox crashes on boot, making the VM not working. Daz's loader saying "Unsupported OS" Ritchie
What version are u using... v3.1.4? Working fine here... so obviously your craches are not related to loaders and such enough memory assigned to the VM?
I'm running v3.1.4 assigned 512MB ram tried with 768MB or 988MB RAM the same. My machine Pentium 4 @2.8GHz 2GB RAM Windows 7 Enterprise Ritchie
I tried with 1200MB RAM same result (Guru meditation). I'll try on different machine, but I doubt it will work. Ritchie
I tried 1280MB same thing, I don't think this is a memory issue, more likely something with the controllers of virtualbox. I'll try doing a fresh install of Windows 7 on Virtualbox rather than importing the image from .ovf format and try it. Ritchie
OK! Installing a fresh install of windows 7 enterprise, the CD-SLIC-LDR_DELL_QA09_0A2.1.iso boots OK but no luck activating a CSVLK key,. I tried some loaders but activate windows as OEM. I want to setup a KMS Server on Virtualbox. Does anyone know a way to activate CSVLK keys? Ritchie
