I claimed some dreamspark Windows Server 2008 r2 keys a few months ago, but I haven't tried using them since then because I was waiting for some RAM for my Hyper-v Virtual Host. However since then dreamspark server 2008 has changed so you can use the enterprise, datacenter and web editions. But when I try to activate a new VM (as standard, enterprise or datacenter) it tells me that the key is for a different edition of 2008 r2 or that it is the incorrect SKU. Does anyone know why this is or what I have to do to activate my machine? Thanks
