Product Activation Key

[Paul]

My main HDD stopped working so i installed Windows XP
Professional on a new HDD.
When i try to activate windows it says that the number of
times i can activate with my key has been exceeded and to
use another product key.

I've had to reinstall Windows before so i understand why
it is saying this, but how do i get a new activation key?

Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks

Select the alternative option to "activate by telephone".
