    Ill play with the hacked activation servers when they are from here. After better solutions are available, I would never use kms servers from the net. Who knows what is collecting your IP's etc etc.

    Thanks for your help. Just running Murphy install with kms activated thing.
    Uninstalled the .exe and ran latest MTK, still the same, must be doing something wrong. Will read all readme stuff carefully this time and see if I can sort this out.

    Negative. I don't bother with filehosting sites since they started DMCA takedowns of them within hours of uploading.

    Wonder if Microsoft will actually release an iso with update 2 - they've not officially referred to it as Update 2, the April update was simply "Windows 8.1 Update" and the August release was just referred to as a "rollup package"

    They're not going to release an update 2 iso. They don't refer to it, internally, as update 2.

    Whelp, this is my first post ever on this forum. Dont tear too hard into me if my questions are very noob. I am using murphy78's iso to install windows 8.1 home 64bit on my spare PC to check it out. I am also using the MTK 2.5.2 for activation purposes. I tried installing updates directly from the microsoft download center, then when it reboots, i get a BSOD and my computer reboots, until i repair it. So my question is, can i do updates directly from microsoft, or do i take them indirectly from another server? Should i just turn off the update feature, (which seems to work this way). Thank you for the help

    You should be able to get them directly from MS.
    If you have an A/V program, you need to uninstall/taskkill during updating.
    They tend to block certain updates.

    A couple of suggestions. Your old computer, have you got the most recent firmware installed? If not, try that. Also, get the latest drivers for your computer from the vendor. Since you are installing the 64 bit version of Windows, you want to be sure that you get 64bit drivers too. After doing all this, I would suggest doing a clean install. Then install the vendor drivers. Then try Microsoft Update BUT just one update at a time. If there is one update that is still causing the BSOD, then you will know not to install that one. I realize this is tedious but it is also a systematic way to eliminate causes and ultimately fix the problem

    Good luck and let us know how you do.

    I know some folks that would appreciate like crazy-
    Windows RT 8.1 .esd with all updates. I have been able to do mine, but its like crazy as hell for (non Scripters like me) to get it correct.
    Yes i use scripts by Murphy78, S1ave77 and others, to do this... (I also make lots of mistakes.) the hardest part for me was after I made the Original USB Recovery Disk)
    1. the install.esd is in 4 parts...

    The operation completed successfully.
    
    to extract correctly - then add the proper .msus to the Windows RT 8.1
    then save it back to .esd then all all the indexes back properly so that it would boot and install. correctly then use the history file to add all that back correctly.

    then M$ adds another update....
    Oh well it does keep ol Snuffy - busy

    yes someone is sure to ask Windows RT 8.1 Boot.wim

    Random question here for anyone that uses the "en_windows_8.1_with_update_x64_dvd_4065090" ISO...

    When you right click on the file in Windows 8.1, and you select "Mount", do you get an error message saying there was a problem mounting the file?

    I've verified that the hash is correct, so the file itself is fine. The original 8.1 iso mounted fine, and every other iso I have on my computer mounts as well. It's just this 8.1u1 iso that doesn't mount.

    Can u open it with UltraIso or something else? did u verify the properties of the file? Most of time when i encounter this prob the downloaded iso was corrupted.

    If the file handle is open in another program (such as a torrent program), you will not be able to mount it.
