  • The only keys that I'm seeing for 2008 server are for 2008 server. I don't see anything for hyper-v. Commented Jul 12, 2012 at 12:01
  • Hyper-V is a service of Server 2008. If you activate Server 2008, that'll include Hyper-V. Commented Jul 12, 2012 at 15:58
  • I was under the impression that a server 2008 key did not activate guest OSes. Only in server 2003 was that available. Commented Jul 13, 2012 at 2:59
  • The key for the host won't activate the guest - see the edit to my answer. Commented Jul 13, 2012 at 14:02
  • No, I'm not trying to activate win7 with a server license. Commented Jul 16, 2012 at 12:13
