>I post here because I experiment a lot of >problem to activate windows 2003 server I have, similarly, never been able to activate Vista under KVM. After some negotiation with the Windows activation backend, I receive an error inviting me to call Microsoft to use telephone activation, which is an astonishingly lengthy process which doesn't work either. I have tried using various network cards, and I have even tried giving them MAC addresses which seem to fit into the card vendor's allocated space in case that sort of detail is being checked? Has anyone actually succeeded to activate Vista (or Windows 2008) licences inside KVM? I have given up trying and am now forced to reinstall Vista (2008) every few months, each time my 4x30 days' worth (4x60 for 2008) of unactivated operation expires.
