    I have a Hyper-V role running on my Win 2008 R2 x64 OS (Dell T3500). I have succesfully activated the parent partition, but when I try to activate a child partition (also running Win 2008 R2 x64), it tells me it only have SLIC2.0. When using the loader, the child partition freezes under startup (black screen with a blinking cursor). How should I activate my child partition?

    If you get the cursor issue at startup it is an issue with the loader, some parent BIOSes will let you use loaders and pass that info to the VM, others don't. If you need to find a way to extend the activation period for evaluation you can use IRT 4, RemoveWAT, or put a SLIC table in the Hyper-V BIOS.

    It's been asked before but I searched and didn't see a reply. What is needed to make this work on Windows Web Server 2008 R2?

    Cannot Install Loader on Windows 2008R2 Enterprise. It simply will not boot after loader 2.2.1 install.
    Hyper-V VM on Windows 2012.

    Where can we get the loader that will work with older versions of server 2008 r2 (6.0.6001)? Is there any downloads for older versions of loaders?
    Thanks Ckshann

    Thanks for the response. I tried that loader version and it did not work. I posted a MGIdiag in another post (maybe in the wrong place).
