I've just downloaded Windows Server 2008 ISO: "6001.18000.080118-1840_x86fre_Server_en-us-KRMSFRE_EN_DVD.iso"...., The advertisement said its trial free for 200 some days. but now when I try to launch it. It's asking for PRODUCT KEY. WHERE CAN I FIND THIS KEY? thank you very much in advance for your help.

Hi, Where did you download the .iso file? http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=8371 The software downloaded from Microsoft does not require product activation or entering a product key. Hope it helps! Regards, Jane

i think you have downloaded the medial which is come for the activate through kms server. if u wnt u can download windows 2008 r2 trial from below link http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/server-cloud/windows-server/2008-r2-trial.aspx you have to get the license from ur volume license portal https://www.microsoft.com/licensing/servicecenter/Registration.aspx running slmgr.vbs /dli u can get the existing license detailsDarshana Jayathilake

according to me you should get a license key from microsoft or use one if you have one with you http://www.microsoft.com/licensing/existing-customers/product-activation.aspx there would a button for activate later just click on it if the download iso is installed fresh. Thanks Viraj
