    The KMs server activates all KMS enabled versions that DONT have WMC added on.

    Make sure you are using GVLK key not the retail or MAK key to use KMS activation....

    as he says, he has an enterprise version of W8, he has no need to care about any key, as this is pre-installed with enterprise, so he only needs to go to mooo and do the appropriate commands

    There is a chance he might have installed an irrelevant key why slmgr /upk and /ipk then.... GVLK key is must for KMS server activation...

    I have Windows 8 Enterprise N but I don't have any product keys. How can I activate it?
    If Enterprise cannot be activated, can Professional be activated that way? If so, I will download Professional version.
    Thanks.

    Again: With enterprise you don't need a key as it is pre-installed with the version. Simply run the mooo command and ato command

    Here are 2 more KMS servers I've found on the web (one is from today!):
    147.134.1.42:1688
    kms.creighton.edu:1688 - This one has found to be working today!
    I haven't tasted them by myself, but they should work as far as I know...
    Have fun with your WIN8 activated! :D

    There aren't any "new" servers.
    kms.creighton.edu is the one everyone is currently using, its IP is 147.134.1.42, and "mooo" or whatever is just another DNS name for it. It's just one server.

    I want to ask something. Do I have to download Windows 8 when it gets officially released at 25th October, or will it be the same as our build 9200 rtm versions?

    Yes it is the same address. It all leads to the .edu servers :)
