    As I said it is my uni KMS server. I am just running the no-ip URL from within my uni network/VPN (took a while to do hence me wanting you guys to test) to allow yall to use when needed. Will wait a bit and if everything goes well i will reactivate it for yall. Till then you can over use the mooo server ;) LOL

    Hi, I activated using the KMS activation method just fine. But now I wanted to check the activation using "Activate Windows". It says my licence will expire soon. But it also shows it is valid till April 2013. I'm also getting a message in the Action Center to activate Windows. And in the My Computer -> Properties, it's showing "Product ID not available".

    Is this normal behavior?

    P.S: By the way, I can't customize the Metro Screen etc just fine.

    Oops I panicked, and reactivated using KMS. So I guess checking slmgr -dlv is pointless now?

    Also, actually I meant I CAN customize the metro screen even though activation was having problems.

    Can anyone tell me how to configure my kms host to be used over internet using Hyper-V. I have created a bridge and did port forwarding but port remains closed!

    Don't use bridges, use netsh and portproxy instead! Also make sure that port 1688 is open! :)

    No this is my uni's server. Still working on mine. Prob is my router. For something like that to work it needs to have a dyndns account put into it and they charge for their services soooooo still trying to find a work around LOL. Till then happy activating :D
