Activation XP Pro help please :-)

Hi all

can anyone help me please with the following problem:

I have 2 laptops of old work, since about 2003, and both had hard disk problems.

I finally got round to begin one of the portable CD player and reinstall XP Pro, including the formatting of the hard drive and perform a new installation of windows XP Pro.

I am now at the screen where it asks for my "product key".

So my key, I took leave the bottom of the laptop and when I enter it and press enter it says that the product key is not valid!

I can not access the wizard activation yet she's not spending the installation part yet!

This is a real, and the mine, copy of Windows XP Pro and the key is also mine because it is at the bottom of my laptop.

Just in case it was the laptop I tried my other laptop and still once, it does the same thing! (with the same CD but another laptop and a different key, the bottom of my second laptop)

Any idea of it please? :-)

Thanks in advance

Windows XP OEM product key on laptops works only with a Windows XP OEM CD.  It seems that you used a Windows XP CD for detail.  Contact the manufacturer of the laptop computers and ask the appropriate Windows XP Recovery CD. Carey Frisch
