    As Tito said, both are on. Check your region settings (have to match your actual location) and sync time against internet time server.

    Server is down. Use one of these instead:
    Windows, Office 2010 and 2013
    Code:
    walkercorps.zapto.org
    kms.shmtu.edu.cn

    non of both commands are mandatory.... If you keep the KMS server entry then your system will automatically try to contact server. If server found to be alive your activation got renewed else no problem....

    Hi.
    Is it safe to activate with one of these Chinese servers? Does we know anything new about informations exchanged during KMS activation?

    first of all, this chinese server is located in a university which means it is offical for all students. When you activate against any server, it is quite well as there only key data are transferred to your machine and simply used for this service. 180 days later you got to do it again. Where is your problem?

    quick questions:

    where is this iso from exactly: SW_DVD5_Office_Professional_Plus_2013_W32_English_MLF_X18-55138.ISO - is it a MSDN iso turned to VL ?


    and can you activate that iso on widows 7 with KMS activation like on win8?

    also, why don't the kms servers last that long? is microsoft somehow managing to take down the pirated servers rather quickly?
