      If you haven't gotten a copy lined up yet, let me know. I have a copy that contains gui and command line, standard & datacenter. I can drop it on a USB drive and mail it to you.

        @Tracy_Burton Thank you for the offer at the moment Rojo is working on setting a file transfer for me as well.

          Eh... so the Server we're running is not R2 (that teaches me to listen to anyone when I can just look it up myself..) it's Server 2012 Standard.

          I got the eval from Microsoft's site, and there are instructions to activate it as a full license, but they don't seem to like the product key. That or I'm misunderstanding the instructions.

          Fun times.....

              Oh I know, I've confirmed it ~10ish times.

              I'm digging through some more data to see what the issue might be.

                Odd... it's set-edition 99% of the time. What is /get-edition telling you?

                  It's giving me the ServerStandardEvaluation and when I ask it to show me the upgrade options is says I can go to ServerStandard or Datacenter.

                  I might have just got it working though, going to confirm.

                    Do the convertion using /set-edition by itself then do the DISM command again with the /productkey

                      ^^^ This is how I've always had the best success with DISM. Set the edition, then add the product key.

                        I'll give that a try in just a moment.

                        Thanks for the tip.
