Windows 7 key

IF you are using your 32bit key on 64bit, I should slap you. There's a reason WHY they give you specific keys for each version. I use the same thing you do, they gave me 1 Serial for my 32bit and 1 for my 64bit.

Keys are platform independent. There's no such thing as an x86 key or an x64 key.

When you download the ISO, what speed do you burn it at? Does the CRC Check Pass, or does it fail?

Burn errors would only affect installation, not activation issues. If it installed fine, then his burn is fine.

Maybe your key can only be activated one time (after all it was free right)? Did you check the message from the license manager from an elevated command prompt?

slmgr -dlv

slmgr -xpr

maybe I'm just wasting my breath (so to speak)?

Ever have one of those long nights, where you cram for hours, and you take your test, only to find out you barely passed it? I just took my pre-certification , I passed but with minimum score. So if its going to be slapworthy, mind kickin' my butt instead? My head is swollen from hitting my desk/books for the past 12 hours.
