Microsoft Activation Key
A sticker on the top surface of the Lightspeed Server lists license numbers. The number
listed as the Physical Key is the OEM license number for the Microsoft Windows
operating system. If you remove and reinstall the OS, you will need to use this key to
activate Windows again. The number typically contains five groups of five digits, as in
this example: YFG8H-TDD97-6BR4G-F88PF-XXXXX. Enter the Physical Key shown on
your sticker when activating Windows.
Microsoft Updates
The Lightspeed Server ships with the Windows operating system set to check for
updates, but it does not automatically download or install them. Downloading and
installation of critical operating system updates is the responsibility of each customer
(see your system administrator).
