Repair installation

M

Megagamers

I go to do a standard repair install on a hard drive I have just cloned using
Acronis Disk Director. Using an XP Home Retail disk at the point in which I
need to type my product key I get an invalid product key. After I look a bit
closer I noticed The window is titled Windows XP proffessional Upgrade. Why
would it tell me it is XP proffesional Upgrade when it is neither of those
things?

It wouldn't. Check the CD you are using.
