The Official Windows 8 Repository

Part 4 of 4 - unvalid link

hello jlgager,

first I'd like to thank you for perfect "Official Vidows 7 Repository" - there was a activating step with the Widows Loader by Diaz - all works perfect till today - great JOB!!!!;
in the current Windows 8 Repostory there is no word about the Windows Loader - in the Part 4 of 4, we can read: Information about KMS activation can be found "here".
But, the link "here" unfortunately doesn't works for me.
So, do I need to find and download Windows Loader somewhere to activate Win 8 or there is other way to do this?

My Best Regards, honchovintorez

Hi all,

I download Win 8 Enterprise x86 and x64 from first topic link just now... but why the SHA-1 Hash value is different from the posted one?
Here's my downloaded file SHA-1 Hash :
x86 : B18E99C38177537DC2B115C3E23A8CAC1C64E537
x64 : AE59E04462E4DC74E971D6E98D0CC1F2F3D63F1D

First link SHA-1 :
x86 : 15CE0B54557B0EC6376ACBBF76E33714FFC3A632
x64 : 73DF20A98D8CDF52E70FBFFECBEBA63F2A242322

And in Part 2 of 4: Check authenticity against MSDN ISO
x86 : FEFCE3E64FB9EC1CC7977165328890CCC9A10656
x64 : 4EADFE83E736621234C63E8465986F0AF6AA3C82

I know the msdn one is not eval... Are my download corrupted? Should I download again?

 

none of the magnet links work only get blank untitled pages - i did message via broken link link couple of days ago but still no joy

 

I really like delta patches, sharing delta patches over evaluations from MS is a great way. Torrents are not allowed at my place

 

Avoid using utorrent and bittorrent... I never had success using magnet links with them... so I switched to Vuze

 

I don't know but as I stated... never able to go with utorrent or bittorrent as on clicking on magnet link it used to show contains of torrent as blank

 

utorrent is working good i hate vuze

 

Try add the magnet in utorrent via "open torrent from url" .

 

As Tito stated I have never had a problem with uTorrent been using it for years now as s1ave and Tito said you have to wait a bit magnets work fine

 

Yes I tried that... it worked... thanx... It was so silly

 

If I install 8 on a laptop that is already dual booting 7 and Ubuntu Studio, will 8's loader take over? Will I have trouble making 8-ProWMC activation permanent?

 

If you do that,yes,W8 bootloader will be first.

 

yes that will happen

no problem with activation

 

Mhmm.

At that point, you'd need to boot into Linux from CD/DVD/USB, chroot into your existing filesystem and setup Grub/Grub2/Burg/Syslinux, etc... over again. Which by installing OS-Prober will auto-detect your currently installed systems. chrooting can seem a bit difficult, but just read over the wiki/tutorial a few times and you'll understand. Alternatively, you can just install Windows, and play around in BCD Editor, which is the simpler route.

However, I do love my Grub2. Just my two cents.

 

Hi, can I just ask whether this download is windows 8 pro version ?

Windows 8 RTM English, 64-bit (x64)
Size: 3.33 GB SHA-1: 1CE53AD5F60419CF04A715CF3233F247E48BEEC4

Regards.
