yeah i allready scan it multiple times , no errors , i still think its because of the time server , searched on google on the error and syncing time works but that wont work on me
hello s1ave77; yeah GVLK key is installed. Just one little tip, how to sync the time ? I think that's why its not working on server 2012. I use QEMU to sync the time, but I don't know with time I should input. I'm in France, so my time is CET (central eurepean time). How can I found out which time zone is the KMS server (lunar21.no.ip.org) I used the KMS (activation Helper v1.5) on other's PC for office 2013, and I had no problem. Again, thanks for helping out
wondering about the stefan7 issue: Why didn't he get access to a server but could do it by local KMS? very interesting to me
he's having the same issue i had yesterday. Exact same error message and everything, I ran the KMS ELDI program, restarted the software protection program after deleting the systen32\SPP directory, ran the scannow program and everything. Same message
Here's some of the error i got from the ELDI script. I ran it for an hour or more: same thing over and over. KMS Client Emulator running... Runtime reported exception 0x6ba = 1722 Error Connection. Syncronizing Time and Waiting 5 s... Tried: 58 times Running now: C:\WINDOWS\System32\Timeout.exe /T 5 /NOBREAK Waiting for 5 seconds, press CTRL+C to quit ...43210 Running now: C:\Users\XXXXX\Documents\KMS GUI ELDI v2.7\KMS GUI ELDI v2.7\KMS Client.exe 1688 lunar21.no-ip.org Windows I was just getting ready to re-install. Won't take long, My system is clean. I'm running a AMD sempron 2.8 with AsRock MB unlocked to 2 cores @ 3.2 gHz. Windows reads it to be like a AMD 4450e dual core I think. That wouldn't cause some kind of time sync problem would it?
