Hi All,
We are with MS's SA plan and have downloaded Vista from the eOpen link. In
our current license detail it had a license key for Vista (to be precise
Windows Vista - KMS). I was going to install Vista on my PC (in a dual-boot
scenario) as an initial install as we don't have plans to do a mass rollout
of Vista in the near future. However it kept on rejecting the
licence/product key that was on our eOpen site. After entering the key it
comes up with "Setup cannot validate your product key. Please review your
product key and ensure it has been entered correctly."
I did a bit of reading about KMS and, although it didn't rally make sense,
decided maybe the KMS server had to be on a clean install. So I have just
tried doing that! Same thing - rejects the product key. So I went back
into the eOpen site and it had a button to request "Multiple Activation
Keys". I'm adventurous so clicked the button and it generated a new key for
me. Beauty!!!, I thought. Nup - same result!!!
Anybody got any idea on what is going on or what I have to do to get
activated????
Many thanks,
