Will not let me activate Win7 and receive 0xC004C008 error code.

Computer of my son had WinXP Pro x 86 on it for a while, and my computer has Win7 Home x 64. For compatibility with some software, he needed a 64-bit version of Windows. So I bought Win8 x 64 for my computer and spent my Win7 x 64 it. Win7 not turn on his computer - I guess because it was already installed on my own. He is no longer on mine (as I Win8), then what should I do to activate this copy on his?

Edit: The message I get is:

Code:

0xC004C008

Description:

The activation server determined that the specified product key cannot be used.

2nd edition:

Before put me the copy on his computer, the key was never activated once (on my computer during the initial installation).

Original title: won't let me activate Win7

Because he was already in use, you will need to reactivate by phone:
