    sometimes, the first attempt results negative. Second or even third might get you activated finally

    forget that BS. It is crap only which destroys your system and gets you a trojan at worst case. Doesn't activate you !!!!

    Confirmed, still works. Just extended my activation by another 2 weeks or so :)
    Remember to run cscript slmgr.vbs /ckms after activation to clear the KMS details so your system won't spam the server.

    Cheers.

    got activated my home PC:cool:

    First synced the time
    In an elevated command prompt just type:

    slmgr /skms 147.134.1.42
    slmgr.vbs -ato

    reboot then finish activation using slmgr.vbs /ckms to clear kms server

    After you have activated w8, you can back up the activation information with window8 manager for reinstalling w8 later.

    By the way...Thank you 147.134.1.42
    :worthy:
