In previous releases of Windows such as 2008 and Windows 7 you can install Windows without entering a product key. After the installation is complete, the computer would automatically find the KMS through DNS and license/activate itself against the KMS server.
In Windows Server 2012, it asks for a product key as part of the installation process as shown in the following screenshot.
The only way to progress this screen is to enter a MAK key obtained of a companies Microsoft licensing portal.
So what happens if you want the Windows 2012 Server or Windows 8 machine to automatically license itself against a KMS upon completion of the installation? You can't enter a product key here as this means the machine will become a MAK license.
The answer is to use a KMS Client Setup Key. This isn't the KMS key itself, but a key which tells the Windows Server 2012 or Windows 8 machine that once it finishes installation to go off and license itself against a KMS.
Microsoft has published a list of KMS Client Setup Keys on the following TechNet article. Simply enter the correct KMS Client Setup Key to complete the installation in which Windows will go off and automatically activate against the appropriate KMS server through DNS or Active Directory discovery.

ReplyDeleteof course, the best place to buy a key is ms. i purchased years from ms online store. however, this time, i'd like to share one special experience on Windows10Keysale.com .
i visit my forum everyday. one day, i found a piece of recommendation from another guy. so i visited this site.
at the beginning, i'm quite skeptical at them. the price is too low.
then i sent many questions to them.
out of my expectation, they replied to me very soon. each question was answered.
at that time, i planned to try the new Office 2010 key.
long story short, i purchased a key from them, received it and download links(32bit&64bit) in about one hour. i need 64. and, more important, the key works at the first try.
i sent much feedback to them. in one word, i'm very satisfied with this purchase, and i think, i should pass words to you.

ReplyDeleteYou could download the software and buy the key in Microsoft official site.
But I think the price is too expensive, more than $200. I found a MS partner online shop with low price about $35 after discounts.
I forget the Partner site, maybe you could Google.

ReplyDeleteHearing all the negative sentiments toward the windows 10 pro key OS made me really cautious in upgrading from Windows 7.
Finally, my Windows 7 became buggy enough that I decided it was time for me to go ahead and upgrade.
The days of reformatting my hard drive and reinstalling Windows OS (95, 98, XP...), when the computer started to act up, are over. I got the pro upgrade version....for a really great price on http://www.Buywindows10keysale.com/ .
I purchased all my software from them. They are the best online store I ever buy.
Installation took a while, with lots of downloading and installing drivers, updates...etc.
When it was finally done, computer was running a lot faster, and all of the weird behaviors of previous installation were gone.
Now as far as using the new OS, it really wasn't that big of a deal. Yes, it's different from the previous Windows; but after 2 or 3 days, I've picked up so many cool features that I truly believe it's a superior OS compared to the previous Windows releases. Really.
The interface is quite convenient once you figure out how to use all the features and what happens when you move your cursor around the screen.
Oh, yeah, and I don't have a touchscreen. Although I'm certain that a touchscreen would definitely be a more effective way to navigate Windows 8, I really have no problems using just the mouse.
So, there you have it. I love this new OS.

ReplyDeleteMy computer arrived at yesterday. I needed a genuine Windows 10 Education Product Key at a great price. Windows 10 Key Sale Store (http://www.windows10keysale.com) made it happen!
However, I was quite skeptical at them since their price seemed too good to trust. So I tried searching for them on google but with little success.
But I decided to give it a try. I paid with PayPal, and received my key in 20mins!!! I tried the key and it worked!
They exhibited sooooo quick customer service. They are a certified Microsoft partner and a great source for Microsoft, Adobe, Rosetta Stone and other products. Waste no time looking elsewhere.
