The Product Key will only work with the PC manufacturer's Restore CD
or maybe a generic Microsoft OEM Windows XP CD. It will not work
with a "Retail Version" which is probably what you have. Contact the
support department of the manufacturer of your PC for assistance in
repairing your Windows XP installation.
