Installation of Product Key

[Kandance-Monsewicz]

I'm currently having diffuculties in downloaading
installing the Service Packs due to an inadvertent
mistake. Apparently the Product Key failed to or was not
initialized or put in during installation. I have the
Product Key No. WKV9B-7H9PB-4796V-TFM2F-HRQBD but have no
idea of installing or communicating this information so
that I can install the critical updates. Suggestions
Please!

Help!

Greetings --

If you are trying to install Service Pack 1a and getting the
following:

The Product Key Used to Install Windows Is Invalid

You need to purchase and use a _legitimate_ full retail copy of
WinXP Pro to perform a repair (a.k.a. in-place upgrade) installation,
using the new CD and Product Key.

It's not advisable to publicise your product key on the
net.Aparently invalid or not,mate.I mean that in the
nicest possible way.

Not advisable to quote that same key in your reply either. <G>
