There is no mention currently in the GUI regarding stats being collected it was only after this feature was discovery was made has the developers promised to add this to GUI setup and have an opt in/out option.
My main concern is the system is checking for any new commands off their server to execute this is disturbing kerry didnt mention this feature in his blog when he came clean about the stats collection.
Hopefully there will be options to still transmit some statistics but still be able to disable remote code fetch feature.
I have replaced motherboards in Customers Machines and successfully reactivated.
I had to call Microsoft and explain that existing system Board died and that we had to replace it with a more recent model which was covered under 3 Yr warranty. Microsoft asked asked for the name of company I was working calling from, and after a few other questions completed activation process with no issues.
I am wondering if your supplier did a dodgy and activated a couple of other machines using you key and Microsoft have blacklisted key.
I would personally speak to Microsoft direct.
