How can I transfer a license Windows from one PC to another?

Please correct me if I'm wrong about all this - I have collected a lot of that on this site. Thank you.

in any case, that is.
I downloaded Windows Server 2003 R2 out DreamSpark - a Microsoft site. I received my product key and installed 2003 Server on a virtual machine in Virtual PC, which is a Microsoft product. I activated to ensure that he could do what I wanted to do - and I think that is where the problem started.

Now, I want to install it on a server for the real deal. Is there a way I can do it with the same product key? I can delete the VM product key?
I read that if I reformat the hard disk of the virtual machine, it will wipe the product key.

Please help me get just Server 2003 on the server without any error messages "Product key is not valid!", or something similar.

Thank you.

Please repost your request in one of the most appropriate Windows Server Forums, thank you!
