When I tried to activate XP online, it does geo online, but I get stuck at
the "UNATORIZED PRODUCT KEY" screen. I looked for the produck key, but the
last person who had it probably peeled it off. What do I need to do to
activate it? If there's a way to see the key electonically, that would
help... Unless that is the one the activator is looking at.

try this first...it finds and lists the key...write it down.

If you still cannot activate you either have bought a Lovely CD but no key
to make it work..
If he did not give you the key he did not sell you XP just a CD
or the key is still in use by the person who sold it to you.
Try the phone call next.

Looks like I'll have to call them... That was the key it was looking at.
I'll call ASAP.
