    if you do it will deactivate and then you'll have the same problem I do. No way that I can tell to change it back once WMC is installed either.

    you can modify registry settings to fool the win8 install dvd into thinking you're running win8 pro, then do a repair install

    i believe the only key it checks is hkeylocalmachine/software/microsoft/windowsnt/currentversion ==> editionid

    Best option is to Re-install Win 8 and try again.

    funny, I didn't have to set all that time zone crap when I activated the pro version the second time after trying to put wmc on.. booted up, went into command, entered the patches and wah-la!:biggrin: so is setting the time zone even necessary?

    Did you run this first?
    slmgr.vbs -ipk XXXXX_XXXXX_XXXXX_XXXXX_XXXXX
    replace the X's with the proper key for Enterprise or pro or what ever version you are using
