I have downloaded the ISO file (windows7beta), and I have been looking for this TOKENS.DAT file that I need to replace with the one in windows, but I can't find it. I also can not find the ACTIVATE.EXE file in order to activate windows7beta.

did I download the correct ISO or Am I missing something ??

I get to the point when after running activate.exe and rebooting it ask for a valid serial key number, I input the one supplied here in this thread 6F2D7-2PCG6-YQQTB-FWK9V-932CC and after a while it comes up with a pop up window error that says:

"the following error occurred while trying to use the product key:
code 0xC004F022
Description: The Software Licensing Service reported that the license authorization failed"

One more thing I have to comment is that in the step 6 where you posted to stop the "Software Licensing" service, there is not such a service, there is a service called: "Software Protection", which is the one I disabled when I was doing the process.

and other thing is the location of the TOKENS.DAT is not in the folder 'softwarelicensing' but in the folder "\Windows\ServiceProfile\NetworkService\AppDat a\Ro aming\Microsoft\SoftwareProtectionPlatform"


OK, I'm stacked, how do I input a valid serial key to make it pass this step. I"m running it in vmware so I will place it in suspend until I find an answer

1) Mount / Burn

2) Set your bios clock back to 02 December 2007

3) Install without a key

4) To get rid of WPA extract activator.rar

5) Click Start -> Run and Type services
when run services.msc in windows 7 and try properties mmc is error
6) Go to Services->Software Licensing and choose "Disabled" as Startup method
in windows 7 this service named not "Software Licensing" it is "Software Protection"
7) Reboot your computer, when rebooted, go to C:\Windows\ServiceProfiles\NetworkService\AppData\ Roaming\Microsoft\SoftwareLicensing and delete the tokens.dat file there, replacing it with the one from the activator.rar
when i disable "Software Protection" access to Windows\ServiceProfiles\NetworkService
deneid =(
8) Yet again, go to Services->Software Licensing and choose "Automatic" as Startup method.

9) Run the Activation.exe file (included in rar), activate your computer as if it was running Vista Ultimate. (Should any errors occur, just neglect them.) Restart your computer.

10) After reboot, it will now ask for a cd-key, use the following one: 6F2D7-2PCG6-YQQTB-FWK9V-932CC - wait a few minutes it for it to activate!
Now you've got an activated Windows 7 version.

I'm still stacked at this "enter a valid product ID" window:
the product ID broad-casted in this forum doesn't work.




I get the following message:

The build from PDC has leaked: http://digiex.net/applications/585-w...it6801dvd.html
