Hey grampaj60, If Windows 8.1 was installed on the target computer previously, and endured no significant hardware changes like motherboard and CPU swaps, you can reinstall Windows without the burden of having a product key. Windows 8 setup asks for the product key at the beginning of the setup without letting you install it. I got the Windows 8 ISO from MSDN but I didn't get enough keys to install it on all my 7 computers. Also, my MSDN subscription level doesn't allow me to get the VL product key to Windows 8 Enterprise.

Is there any way I can install Windows 8 for a limited time period like we used to do for Windows 7 ?

Create a bootable USB flash drive to install Windows 8.
Here is a little help. Appliance serial number search. Below you can discover the energy rating of many refrigerators and freezers produced for the American consumer market. Refrigerator and Freezer Database and Search Tool Refrigerator and Freezer Energy Rating Database Many people haven't a clue how much energy their refrigerator or freezer is using every hour of every day of every year. To search this database, choose 'Refrigerator' or 'Freezer' and a brand name from the pull-down list. Then type in a model number, and click on the 'Search' button below.
Navigate to
<FlashDrive>:SourcesSave a file called
ei.cfgin that folder with the following text:
If you want to install the Pro edition, replace Core with Professional. If you want the setup to ask which edition you want install without entering the product key, leave the [EditionID] blank.
You can also set [VL] (Volume Licensing) to 1 (for true) and [Channel] to OEM/Retail
Now install as normal and the Windows 8 setup won't ask for the product key. This will work for every copy of Windows 8 that you can get from anywhere.
Also, if you ever to want to enter the product key, you can do so from the Windows Activation window or using the slui 3 command.
The answer of User is correct, but you can also leave EditionID in ei.cfg blank:
Now Windows 7 and 8 Setup will let you install without Product Key, and also lets you choose the Edition you want to install. You don't need to edit ei.cfg every time.
Quickest option (no need to modify and burn a DVD or create an install flash drive) is to use a generic key. They are keys that can't be used for activation but only to bypass that installer screen.
Here is a list of generic keys. If the link is dead just Google windows 8.1 generic key.
windows 8 is free for 90 days.There should be a skip option at the bottom of the screen where it asks for the product key.clicking this you can install the 90 days evaluation copy
HTH
MSDN keys are multi-activation which is why they don't provide you with a bunch.

I have read that at some point they will cut you off but then all you need to do is just call them up and they very lenient about resetting the count.
