    Confirmed all servers offline......EVERYONE find a forum you trust and looks busy. just watch and wait till somebody posts a success. then try that method. If pinging the server results in a no ping then the dude saying he just got activated is "probably lying".

    Why are you spreading junk advice? Better remain silent than to confuse others.

    As a bit of a warning to all, I do not recommend using your windows accounts on even currently activated versions of Windows till at least one week before the retail launch of the operating systems. This OS is different in more ways than people realize. That add features to Windows 8 option in the OS is more than what you guys think, even if you don't take advantage of the feature. I would also set windows updates to not automatically download or install updates.

    How is what he said not true? if you can't ping the server then it isn't up.

    here is what the hash from leaked windows 8 compared to the ones on MSDN:

    wzor Windows 8 x64 Enterprise

    SHA1: 73DF20A98D8CDF52A70FBFFECBEBA63F2A242322


    MSDN Windows 8 x64 Enterprise

    SHA1: 4EADFE83E736621234C63E8465986F0AF6AA3C82

    as we can note they are different, any thoughts as to what this means?

    It's very possible for a server to be up and yet not respond to ping requests.

    Why do we even need to explain this...

    This was previous known, that the hash will be different. It maybe because the leaked version didn't include EULA agreement.

    wzor iso`s contain missing eula and or not for the public use so this explains why sha1 hashes are different

    just wait for the real Windows 8 x64 Enterprise with SHA1: 4EADFE83E736621234C63E8465986F0AF6AA3C82 to appear on torrent sites and delete your wzor iso :biggrin:

    The same reason that we have a thread that is 215 pages long with 210 pages of "I cannot activate, I have not read the first page, what do I do?"

    do you think, apart from the EULA will there be any other difference from the two?

    oh ok so from my understanding there shouldn't be any difference apart fro the missing EULA right?

    oh ok then I will do that when is appears on torrents sites and you think we will be able to use the same installation keys like the ones WZOR provided?
