W2K8 : Unable to activate, Key Management Service not enabled (error 0xC004F039)

If you have the same problem as mentioned above (see screenshot) this is how to fix it :

Doing the following activates it using the MAK key:

1) Open a cmd shell as Administrator.
2) Type the following (but use your key instead of all the X’s)

slmgr -ipk XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX-XXXXX

Voila : Windows is activated!
