I fixed my activation error. When I booted up this morning I noticed my Lock screen wasn't what I had set it to, so I went in to change it, and was told I couldn't until windows was activated.
I took a chance and changed my product code to what was listed on MSDN for Enterprise 64 bit. Activated a couple of seconds later and all appears fine. I have no idea why the product code was changed during the upgrade?

As I replied in your earlier post. I have never been asked for a code. My installation is automatically activated. You apparently went via a different route? The MSDN download does not require a code.

Hi there

I got a Windows is not activated message where the watermark is on the bottom right hand of the screen. Just type SLUI 3 in administrator mode - note space between slui and 3 and insert the standard key (Enterprise if using Enterprise or the standard build for the standard one - then it's fine).

The download when doing "update" from PC settings ==>check for new builds doesn't give any progress while it's downloading -- a bit annoying that as it would be nice to see that sort of information.

Cheers

I just clicked on "change key" and clipped and pasted the key in. A lot easier.

Yup. It doesn't show any progress bar. Just be patient.

How patient? Is it a large download?

The ESD file is the biggest part of the download, it is 2.7 GB for x64 and 2.2 GB for x86. In ideal conditions where you could use 100% of your line speed all the time, it would take about 36 minutes to download the x64 ESD file on a 10 MBps connection, a bit under half an hour for the x86.
