Product Key

[Guest]

Ah! Received my DVD in the mail today! All excited!
Tried three times to install it, each time the window tells me that
"Setup cannot verify your product key."
Did some genius slip the wrong label into the case?
If so, what do I do now?

Try going to a computer where no one has tried to download Vista (may not be
necessary but if you want to play it safe).. Then go to the
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsvista/getready/preview.mspx
And select the Download Now.. After going through the rituals you should get
a key both to your screen and in the email provided.

If that key doesn't work either then post back..

Did not work for me. I am trying to install using the mailed dvd that came
from MS. It refuses to accept the key provided with the disc. Freaking me out.
