The copy of MAK was verified workable at time filling in the space provided on the Windows Activation screen. In the Win 8 Pro case, Windows prompts that the grace period had been expired, copy not activated; whereas in the Win 8 Enterprise case, Windows prompts that system server cannot verified it is a valid key. What have I done wrong? Or I need a third party tool?
First, the K in MAK already means Key. Is that MAK genuine? You can use Ultimate PID checker to find out if it is maybe blocked (it will check remaining activations with MS servers).
I've to second that. MAK Key discussions not allowed on this forum and there a lot other way around to find what you're looking for. And you still have the choice, if your key isn't your own one to use KMS which works well.
All, Thx for your valuable response. The MAK was checked and proved to have numbers of activation count available. What leave questionable is the edition of Windows 8 Pro and Windows Enterprise ISO file that I have. Listed below is the file label. 1) en_windows_8_pro_x64_dvd_915440.iso 2) 9200.16384.120725-1247_x64frev_Enterprise_VL-_HRm_CENA_x64FREV_EN-US_DVD.iso Thx again.
en_windows_8_pro_x64_dvd_915440.iso can also be volume activated if you install correct GVLK (in case of KMS) or use a MAK.
Trojan & Tito, Very likely I have to find either iso below and try to use my copy of MAK. By the way do I have to remove the key that comes with the ISO first before input the MAK. • en_windows_8_enterprise_x86_dvd_917587.iso • en_windows_8_enterprise_x64_dvd_917522.iso • en_windows_8_pro_vl_x86_dvd_917830.iso • en_windows_8_pro_vl_x64_dvd_917699.iso
Code: Code: 0xC004C004 Description: The activation server determined the specified product key is invalid.
Carlos Detweiller & pisthai Thx for your response. Activation using a third party tool is not my preference; nevertheless appreciated.
