Windows 8 Enterprise on Volume Licensing Site

[Theblacksheep]

Windows 8, Server 2012 and Visual Studio 2012 are all up on VLSC

[jamesmay]

The enterprise edition can be found in the software assurance section

[CAWJames]

For some reason, if I click on the Windows shortcut in Downloads and Keys, it only shows Windows 8 Pro. but if I search for Enterprise, it shows! Weird really.

[RabbieBurns]

I dont see it even under software assurance or by searching

[CAWJames]

Have you got EES with a desktop pack or Windows licences with SA?

[RabbieBurns]

no idea the big bad boss does all that stuff. I wouldn't be surprised if we dont have the correct licensing. Although win8 Pro has appeared, and I have activated a copy of enterprise i got from an alternate source with our 8 Pro MAK key successfully.

[CAWJames]

You usually only get enterprise when you have SA and other things. I dont think you get it with a normal windows licence.

The licence summary in the VLSC should tell you exactly what your are licenced for.

[RabbieBurns]

hmm according the that summary we arent lisened for a fraction of the things we are using hah.

I just wonder if since we switched from school3 to ESS if there is perhaps a different login to the licensing site and Im using an old one? Although im not sure why an old one will still be active.

I guess Ill need to find out on Monday

[CAWJames]

Everything is tied to the microsoft account that was given when you went with EES, so its entirely possible you are looking at an old one. As licenses don't really go away, they hang about!

At our college, I have some licensing on my email address, but the EES is on the technical managers email.

I believe you can have everything shifted to one address, but not sure how!

having trouble getting the 64bit iso from the site, keeps failing at around 70-80%

Has anyone got their Windows 8 KMS key through the VLSC site directly? We have SA and Windows 8 is listed under our licensed products, but when I go to get the key all I see is this:
