It seems that you have never activated your copy of windows... If this is a legal copy of Windows, then you shouldn't need to "re-arm" it ...

When I enter my product key on my sticker that came with Windows 7, it says "The product key you entered does not appear to be a valid Windows 7 product key. Please check your product key and type it again."
Thats the reason. That key is a trial key, the kind win7 uses for keyless installs. When Windows is installed using the keyless install method, Windows uses it own Keyless Install product key. The Keyless Install product key acts as a Trial key and allows the user to use windows for 30 days. Since the Keyless Install key is a Trial key, it can not be activated, either online or manually.Windows Product Key: *****-*****-74XYM-BH4JX-XM76F
You need to enter a legitimate key for your edition of win7. If the trial key is indeed what is imprinted on your dvd case, you have been duped by the seller, please contact him for a full refund.
I have a different key on my copy of WIndows 7 DVD, its not the same.
In that case, you have 2 options. One call the seller. The other, call MS.
