    Windows 8 Sitting in Windows 8 Pro (MSDN) and can't figure out how to install Media Center

    Hi all - I have a legit Windows 8 Pro key from my MSDN subscription and I am enjoying Windows 8. I went to "add features" so I can get Media Center installed but it says "That key won't work..." But I am activated and it's 100% my key as I see it in my MSDN log in. What gives?
