If I only have a personal microsoft account rather than an orgainisation account how can I install Windows Server Insiders? The login page appears to only allow you to login with an organisation account? If I have gotten hold of an insiders iso, what product key do I use with it?Solved9.1KViews3likes11CommentsServer 2019 Volume licensing activation key not working
I have a server that I am trying to install Server 2019 Standard. The Volume Licensing activation key is not working. The product was downloaded from the Volume Licensing portal along with the license key. The activation pane shows a product ID, and on the product key space the last (5) digits are already populated. The server had a previous Server 2016 evaluation running on it before it was reformatted before attempting to install Server 2019.Solved209KViews3likes28CommentsUnable to boot to installer
I have just started a new job and I have convinced my boss to let me install the 2019 preview to demonstrate Proof-of-Concept for WSUS and WDS before making them part of our process. I'm using tower system previously in use by a regular employee. Hardware is ASUS P6X58D Premium mainboard, Core i7 CPU, 12GB RAM, 320GB Western Digital spinning drive and Nvidia QuadroFX 570. Booting from DVD the system stops at the Windows logo with no spinning dots. Pressing the power button results in immediate power off, so I know it's not completely unresponsive; just not passing into the PE system. Windows 10 1709 installer runs fine from DVD or USB to the same system -- and installs and runs fine, so I know it's not a hardware issue. Server 2016 also fails to boot from DVD.1.8KViews0likes2Comments
