    Hello,

    I’m not sure about what to do with product key, I entered the correct product key in “GENERAL”

    (it automatically removes the “-” but they are automatically added after validation)

    I checked several times and made several test with different machines. After installing a sysprep’ed Windows 7 image, all is OK except this activation.

    The output of fog.log is:

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    But Windows is still unactivated and countdown until activation still running.

    Did I do something wrong?

      @ashledombos is the system to be activated by kms? The key you have for this system is the real key or generic?

        Hi Tom,

        it’s a real key coming from the OEM product key sticker associated with the computer, in one case, or a bought Microsoft single license in another case.

        I don’t know KMS so my guess is no, KMS is not used for activation 🙂 Until now we enter key by hand after fog deployment (it’s the only thing not automated)

        The only thing I see that could interfere is that the sysprep windows (running in Virtual Box) is activated with another key from another bought license (dedicated) but after OOB process the key is wiped (at least I hope so, as Windows is deployed unactivated, which is the aimed goal)

          @ashledombos For the case of OEM, you should NOT have any Product Key in your unattend.xml file. The Unattend without product key tells Windows to activate by attempting to find SLIC. Having a product key means it’s going to try to activate using the key in the file. After oobe you have it resetting, but Windows is trying to active using the key that is typed in the field (which it IS doing.)

            Thanks Tom,

            I don’t find any product key staying in my unattend.xml file (the one in c:\windows\system32\sysprep)

            Do you think the product key used for activating the Windows image can be the problem?
