True but if there aren't any keys what are you going to do? Put Standard sever and disable the services you do not need. Into manual mode. That exist since WIN NT 4 my friend. At least you will have something then. Take it from an MCSE like me...............Cheers
Because I only need the Web role. Why would I want to install a version containing features and components that I don't want or need? I would much rather make and install an OEM disk of the Web server version. Regards
That’s why I asked for the OEM key to be posted if any one had one. When this thread was started, nobody had an OEM key for enterprise either. Yes and wouldn't it have been nice if we didn't have to do that anymore. Oh wait, we don’t. Microsoft provided us with a web server version. And Yes, I can run the standard version until someone is able to post a key for the web version. So you have an MCSE, bully for you. I’ve got one too. Do we all need to start listing our certifications and advanced degrees now?
MCSE? I'm running 32Bit Server 2008 Web Edition myself right now, VOLUME License version activated with MAK key (level A), but if a OEM:SLP key would surface i would prefer to use that instead as who knows whenever my used key is going to get blocked, it's posted all over the internet.
Mate, I was trying to be as helpful as I could. I can see that sometimes is better not to help people like you and let it go. Good luck with your ego and the rest.
The Dell keys works fine for current: File Name: en_windows_server_2008_datacenter_enterprise_standard_sp2_x64_dvd_342336.iso Date Posted (UTC): 5/11/2009 3:28:13 PM SHA1: 34C7D726C57B0F8B19BA3B40D1B4044C15FC2029 ISO/CRC: 649EDDBF With Dell certificate it activates just fine (both Standard & Enterprise)
And how did you come to this conclusion? en_windows_server_2008_datacenter_enterprise_stand ard_sp2_x64_dvd_342336.iso Where did you see Windows Storage Server in the name? sebus
