    Windows XP Install Problem


    Hello guys,

    I have got a new/sealed Windows XP with SP3. When I try to install it and I get to the product key entered it says at it is not the right key and I have a few times making sure that I am getting it right, with the same error. It is a genuine disc and key. What is wrong?

    Small update: I managed to skip it during the install and I will try to activate it tomorrow afternoon and see what happens.
