    Probably a corrupted download, it may have been corrupted by moving etc. Just restart the torrent fresh, stop your torrent client and replace the new torrent content with your corrupted data. Restart the torrent client and it should re-check and download the corrupted data only
    Should be as quoted in the NFO

    Sadly, no. The best thing to do would be quickly install the non-eval version so that your downtime is minimised. I would advise you to download the Enterprise edition, which will allow you to upgrade and keep all your programs, data and settings.
    Give it a shot and let us know how it goes.

    So, A fresh install is better? I just wish I could keep all my programs and settings, instead of doing it all again.

    See it as a healing process. We all know that it is a pain in the @ss starting from scratch but I assume that you never will use such hacktivation crap, never again :D

    Enterprise comes with GVLK; no need to enter any key.

    If you go for a clean install you can ease some of the pain using Windows Easy Transfer - it is surprisingly effective!

    Hi guys sorry to bother but I'm struggling to download the 8.1 x64 single language - Portuguese Brazil. It's really slow. Some seed or a mirror would be really appreciated.

    Thank you in advance.
