Windows 7 Upgrade from XP not Validating error: 0xC004F035 RRS feed

    I have recently upgraded an older system from Windows XP to Windows 7.  However, it will not activate and gives an error: 0xC004F035

    I have updated other systems using the same process and was successful.  The key that is entered is for a KMS server. 

    To my uneducated eyes it looks as though the BIOS is not compatible(from the log file).  Is there any workaround?

     

    The MGADiag log follows:

    Actually, in this case, the BIOS is relevant.


    "The software Licensing Service reported that the computer could not be activated with a Volume license product key. Volume licensed systems require upgrading from a qualified operating system . Please contact your system administrator or use a different type of key."

    As it says, Volume Licenses (such as KMS) must be upgraded from a qualified OS.  My understanding is that that the Qualified OS referred to here is an OEM SLP activated OS.  Meaning the base OS (that the Volume License software is upgraded from) must be a self-activating, OEM SLP using OS. 

    As seen in the Diagnostic Report "BIOS valid for OA 2.0: no, invalid SLIC table" the current Bios doesn't have the SLIC Table to enable the OEM SLP  key to Self-Activate.  And since the OEM SLP key can't be used, the OS is not a "Qualified OS" for KMS software.

    Unfortunately I don't know how to resolve this issue. I support consumer level software and the information I provided regarding KMS/Volume Licensing is just what I have picked up along the way. I recommend posting in the MSDN and/or Technet forums where people, more familiar with enterprise level software, may be able to provide better assistance.

    Thank you, I have reviewed.  The KMS server seems to be operating fine and we have plenty of licenses available.  Additionally, I just did a fresh install on the same make/model and it activated fine, even with an older BIOS.  I tried rolling the problem systems BIOS back to the same version, but I'm still getting an error.

    The BIOS is irrelevant in terms of external activation - it only matters for OEM_SLP keys, which self-activate.
     

    Error code 0xC004F035

    <SCRIPT type=text/javascript> loadTOCNode(2, 'moreinformation'); </SCRIPT>

    Symptom

    <SCRIPT type=text/javascript> loadTOCNode(3, 'moreinformation'); </SCRIPT> When you try to use a KMS client or a KMS host to activate one or more computers, you may receive the following error message:
    0xC004F035
    The software Licensing Service reported that the computer could not be activated with a Volume license product key. Volume licensed systems require upgrading from a qualified operating system. Please contact your system administrator or use a different type of key.

    Cause

    <SCRIPT type=text/javascript> loadTOCNode(3, 'moreinformation'); </SCRIPT> This issue may occur because volume editions are licensed for upgrade only. Installation of a volume operating system on a computer that does not have a qualifying operating system installed is not supported.

    Workaround

    <SCRIPT type=text/javascript> loadTOCNode(3, 'moreinformation'); </SCRIPT> To work around this issue, install a qualifying version of a Microsoft operating system, and then reinstall the volume operating system.

    (benefit of 20/20 hindsight, and a lot more knowledge)

    Just in case anyone trips across this thread, here's the cause and resolution...

    1) Cause: A KMS activation of Windows 7 looks for a SLIC table to confirm eligibility - if it finds one, it must be valid. The SLIC table here is not valid, and so KMS activation fails.

    2) Resolution

    Either

    a) change the Volume License Key to a MAK type and activate against the Microsoft servers

    or

    b) resolve the error in the SLIC table - this may mean reflashing the BIOS, contacting the manufacturer for assistance, or simply reinstalling the OS.

    Hope that helps someone!

    No - I do not work for Microsoft, or any of its contractors.
