First past its sell-by date, I have to install Windows XP on my (Dell Dimension 4100)cellar computer because the other rock-hard drive crashed that be surrounded by it. After it be successfully installed I go to bear out Windows while running SP1 and it said that it be already validate short me validate it. So I thought ok.wierd... and I go on to download and install SP2. After that be successfully done it told me I have to support Windows. So I enter my Serial Key and it told me I typed it incorrectly. The simply problem next to this is that I enjoy the Code of Authenticity. I own used it I don`t know 5 times (most on multiple re-installations of Windows on my aged Gateway computer, it be Gateway's incompetence that cause this). It doesn't make clear to me its be used too masses times, lately that I enter it incorrectly, even though I know I typed it correctly. Help. I am more or less computer savvy, but this one is beyond me. Any facilitate is appreciated.
