    Yes, there seems to be a problem with the mgnetme link. I click it and it opens up my utorrent but with no sign of the Win8 download. However, there IS a load of torrents showing that I recently deleted! Very odd...

    Better, maybe, to post a straightforward torrent file rather than bother with magnets?

    More of an issue, though, is that (unless I've completely misread this and the FAQ thread) there's currently no way to activate.

    Thanks for the great thread.

    Hashtab is my prefferred Hash checking program. It has capability to copy and paste Hashes (and to copy all) and it can directly compare files.

    The magnet link takes you to page where the link has an error - the error is that there are a a couple of extra spaces in the hash between 12D66 and B740. If the owner of the page at magnet.me can remove these spaces correct this, then the link works fine.

    (I saved the page locally, edited the spaces out and got the magnet link working).

    Thanks.

    I'm still trying to find "en-gb_windows_8_enterprise_x64_dvd_922086.iso" can't find it for download anywhere, I can't put up with color spelled like that everywhere it's spelt colour not color how annoying, so anyone know where to download the en-gb version of enterprise ?

    Looks like the link has been fixed on the magnet.me page.

    Click on the Torrent Magnet Link, which opens a new page and then click on the link that appears in the center of the bubble starting with the word magnet... This should launch your fav torrent client (uTorremt / Vuze / etc) and then the download should start.

    Hope this helps.

    right click on link and choose copy link location, then paste onto the browser location bar, delete the two %20's between 12D66 and B740, press enter.

    Yeah we need British version:

    File Name:en-gb_windows_8_enterprise_x64_dvd_922086.iso
    Languages:English
    SHA1:3C6317B4736E8A38E7697F56FF3F8C11383827E7


    I've resorted to downloading the language pack iso as I already installed the us-en version of enterprise, if anyone wants the en-gb file only to install I will upload it here, but it would be good if we could get a link for n-gb_windows_8_enterprise_x64

    So I guess the MSDN and RTM releases are different somehow? Though the size looks to be about the same...And the keys to installing both seem the same . . .

    For Example:
    Windows8Pro x64 MSDN (This thread) the SHA-1 is 1CE53AD5F60419CF04A715CF3233F247E48BEEC4
    and
    From the RTM Thread (35580-Microsoft-Windows-8-Professional-RTM-x86-x64-WZT) the SHA-1 is E63C1D3733532ABC7AB28F3D61526E361E80271A

    Hopefully someone knows the answer . . .
    TIA.

    I read that it was just a minor change in the header for the install.wim file.
