I have a genunie product key but it does not work. How to solve the problem?
I bought a PC refurbished which came with license Windows XP Pro renovated the Micro Center near my house. My son got the infected PC and so I decided to reinstall the operating system. I used the product key on the label of license on the PC, but it did not work. I went to Micro Center for help, but they have had the same problem and then I recommend to contact Microsoft Support. To my surprise, it is so hard to get help from Microsoft even if I have a license and use a product of Microsoft Genunie. Is this an easy problem to solve, or should I complain (or continue) Microsoft to have this problem resolved? Thanks adavance.
My suspicion is that it's a SP3 - the description of the disc key you give seems to be right (from what little I can find that the part number on the web) for a disk of SP2.
You may be able to confirm this by calling an Activation Center and asking them to confirm the validity of the key - use your local number in this list.

I have entered my product key for validation number, but he says that it is incorrect.
Product key
I have entered my product key for validation number, but he said it's a mistake - I double checked and that's okay!Hello
It is easy sometimes to, for example, read B instead of 8 (or vice versa). Another consequence is also possible (e.g., Y and T, C and G). Try to imagine what letter it might be. It cannot hurt to keep trying until you get it right. Once you get it right I would say saving for future occasions when this may be necessary.

Windows 7 reinstall "invalid product key".
I recently started a computer fixing for someone, they got three Dell Optiplex 755 desktop computers, and I got a few pieces of each of them (hard drive, processor, ram cards). I got the computer to boot, but since it's so old and I don't know what is the file system and it is a bit slow, I tried to reinstall Windows. I have the disc to install Windows 7 Professional x 64 and went to control Panel\All Control Panel Items\Recovery\Advanced recovery methods then clicked Reinstall windows. It restarts with the disc and went to the screen configuration, but then stopped and said that you can not install Windows because it has an invalid product key. Don't know why it does, but when I got to do start back when I also got to put in it, it says that Windows needs to be reactivated because of hardware changes, so in PowerShell, I typed in [slmgr-ato]. It worked, and after a reboot the lower right corner of the Office had more "Is not a genuine copy of Windows" on this subject, so I guess it worked. Can someone help me?
