Windows cannot find the Microsoft Software License Terms when installing WS2012 R2 Evaluation?

Hello Community

    On WS2012 R2 Evaluation I have installed Hyper-V.

    Now I created a VM in one folder then I created the VHD in another folder.

    I chose "Generation One".

    I right click the VM and started it.  After the WS2012 R2 Evaluation started to
install on the VM an error message appeared stating:

    "Windows cannot find the Microsoft Software License Terms. Make sure the
installation sources are valid and restart the installation."

    The dvd the VM is attempting to install is the WS2012 R2 Eval I downloaded. I burned it to dvd
and installed it on this physical machine which is obviously working fine. But when I try to
install the WS2012 R2 Evaluation on the VM it is failing to install with that error message:

    "Windows cannot find the Microsoft Software License Terms. Make sure the
installation sources are valid and restart the installation."

    When the WS2012 R2 Eval is attempting to install on the VM it is not prompting me for Terms or
showing it is using the default for the installation key.

    How do you install the WS2012 R2 Evaluation on a VM using Hyper-V without it looking for licensing
terms or installation keys?

    Thank you
