Welcome to today’s daily kōrero!
Anyone can make the thread, first in first served. If you are here on a day and there’s no daily thread, feel free to create it!
Anyway, it’s just a chance to talk about your day, what you have planned, what you have done, etc.
So, how’s it going?
How do you deal with licensing issues if you do this? AFAIK you can’t do it with an OEM Windows license? (or do you just use “alternative methods”)
You can actually use it with your existing OEM license. You may need to copy the ACPI tables from your physical machine to the VM, but personally, I’ve never felt the need to do so, and I haven’t had any activation issues.
Although technically speaking, you’d still be breaking the EULA… not that Microsoft cares or anything.
Hmm OK, maybe I haven’t tried that properly or something… will have to have another go at some point. Thanks.
Yeah, not so worried about the EULA, it’s not like I’m pirating or anything.
