Xen project Mailing List

Paul,

Yes my MV's networking is actually functional

Everything is fine now. Windows 10 Pro is activated as expected :D. I bought Win 10 Pro on microsoft site yesterday. So this is a legal licence.

Since I dind't want to spend more time on fixing this issue I called Microsoft Support Online directly to activate my Win 10 Pro. This is an option when you got this issue.

This is a option that you can use through "Parameters" on Win 10 Pro (but I didn't remember where I clicked to get in Parameters options).

I called the number for my own country (France)

I tried to bypass all automatic digits suggested by the automatic voice

I waited for getting someone on the call = 1 human (less than 1 minute)

He asked me to go on http://support.microsoft.com/help
I accepted the contrat

He got the 6 digits. I had to install the applet to access my PC remotely

I was OK that he could access my PC remotely. He added the ID activation for my PC remotely.

PC was rebooted and it was OK.

I don't know why I got this issue after installing all Xen PV Drivers 8.2.0 :(

But now it is fixed :D

Calling "Microsoft Online Support" seems to be the easiest way to reactivate Windows 10 by entering your activation ID.

Regards.

David

David,

Not sure what’s happening then. Is your VM’s networking actually functional?

Hi Paul,

Thanks for letting me know. I am on Windows 10 Pro version 1607 1493.0

I clicked on the trust dialog as you advised me while I was installing drivers

I removed "the testsigning enabled" status and I rebooted my VM

For activation I amstill blocked on this status

Same message then this one

https://www.windowscentral.com/sites/wpcentral.com/files/styles/larger/public/field/image/2016/06/troubleshoot-windows-10-activation.jpg?itok=dyhliJ8p

I tried what it is recommended here

http://www.windowscentral.com/how-re-activate-windows-10-after-hardware-change

Unfortunately the only message I have is "Servers are not available. Try later".

I will try later and see if I can get in to add my own PC as suggested. But I guess it should take a while ( a few days or a few weeks?). Well I am not lucky

For Windows Update, it works but it always try to reinstall the same update :( (KB4015438)

Hi David,

I suspect it is turning on testsigning that is stopping Windows Update. You don’t need to turn testsigning on for released drivers though. They are signed so should just be able install them (clicking through the trust dialog on the way). It’s only development builds that will need testsigning enabled.

Cheers,

Paul

Hi ALL,

This weekend I set up Windows 10 Pro 64 Bits as a VM (+ VGA Passthrough = GTX 680 harcoded to GRID K2).

I used Xen 4.3.4 on a Linux Kernel 3.19.

The VM is able to boot and works fine.

I installed all PV Drivers for 8.2.0. I added

bcdedit /set testsigning on

before installing all drivers as Administrator (as recommended from INSTALL.cmd file ) .

Unfortunately now activating Windows 10 Pro does not work anymore. I am able to work on the VM but no more Windows Update :(

Did I do something wrong?

FYI my VM was backed up through LVM system before adding all Xen PV Drivers.

Thanks.

Regards.

David
