    Simply go to Windows Update at the system property page and let it search. It takes quite a while now as the traffic is high. It'll find your updates as well as it does for the all of us.

    this is funny as there was no silverlight today. I would say, you let it run again and later, we talk about KMS server :D

    Ok back to KMS
    So what is new out there...

    I wish MS would give me a MAK key not just CSVLK key.

    If I may ask, what is your relationship with Microsoft? I have no idea what is the difference between a MAK key and a CSVLK key, and from what I understand, they are needed to power these KMS servers, but how did you get them? If it's information that can not be shared, then I understand.

    If I had a genuine KMS server key at home, I would not cry after a cheap MAK key. So ...

    I only want a MAK key to play with. See what it changes to the script to give it per. activation.
    I have a good ideal what a KMS activation changes but want to compare the two.

    I got my CSVLK which is a Volume License Key through MSDN for my business. I have to have it to do IT services at the shop and store.
    I have 15 computers in the shops and 25 in the store, plus 6 POS systems that where running XP but now run Windows 7
