I have a invalid 25 product key Certificate of Authencity. Previously I've able to install it to my previous PC like a 2009 PC and a Mac Book Pro... And I have 2 CD key of Product CoA of Windows XP Pro... One purchased from ibuypower.com the other I bought it at Bestbuy store in hawaii.
I have both Certificate of Authencity and a hologram of Microsoft both CD and the Product key.
I tried to use both Product keys to install Windows XP Pro into my Mac Book Pro for Bootcamp. Previously I was able to install Win XP Pro with Desktop Pararrel software for my Mac Book Pro. (I bought this version from Bestbuy in store in hawaii)
I typed both Product keys and even have the box purchased for $299.99 and it said that Its for distribution for US/CANADA only made in Puerto Rico and it also said www.howtotell.com
And it said Invalid Product Key... It's quite strange, I previously installed Win XP Pro both on my Ibuypower NZXT Apollo and Mac Book Pro back in 2009-2010 but when I bought a new Hard Drive I wanted to expand from 80GB HDD to a 500GB HDD for my laptop and also same for my ibuypower.com from 80GB to 500GB HDD and they both decline my Product Key saying Invalid Product Key and one came with ibuypower and other bought it in store in bestbuy.com
And when I try to look up for a website in order to type down the serial number for Certificate of Authencity I figured someone would validate my Authencity of proof of purchase and maybe they could give me a new Product Key in order to replace a Product Key that's Invalid yet it was previously installed from other Hard Drives before...
And I bought the 2 Hard Drives brand spankn' New at Amazon.com and had that sealed plastic for electronics when I got the Hard Drive Shipment it didn't include a box or instructions but it was sealed in a vacuum sealed plastic for electronics so it prevents it from having any static damaging the product which I've seen it's proof that only a manufacture can have the material to seal in the hard drive.
So I don't know why it wouldn't able to install when I installed the Mac Book Pro 10.56 OS Leopard.. It was able to install and I was able to create a Parition which was like 240GB Mac OS and 240GB BootCamp (for Win XP Pro OS) Cos a friend told me I can install a Win XP Pro on my Mac Intel-based laptop a friend online in a MMORPG lol I used Disk Utility before and it gave me an option to create a parition and when I installed Win XP Pro it was able to format the parition to a fat32 and nfts not just nfts only... Because I read that you can't install Win XP Pro if it's nfts...
So I'm kind of baffled as to why I was able to install Win XP Pro on my ibuypower.com NZXT Apollo and Mac Book Pro back in 2009-2010 and yet when I install today on Dec. 27 2011 Mac Book Pro and Ibuypower Desktop PC says invalid Product Key...
When Mac Book Pro was able to run Leopard Mac OS so it shows the hard drive is functioning without any corrupted data. And I used the previous Hard Drive on originally for Playstation 3 and was able to install Playstation 3 OS when I replaced my PS3 hard drive and removed that and put it into my Mac Book Pro which is compatible for Seagate Momentus XT hybrid ssd and Seagate Barracuda for my Desktop. And the previous hard drive was Hitachi Deskstar and Western Digital
Especially considering my MacBook Pro is from Mid 2007 17" laptop so I was surprised to learn that Momentus XT was able to install both Windows and Mac OS based and other OS based.
Guess I'm looking for reasons as to how the Win XP Pro Product key became invalid when I previously used it to install 2 Personal Computers in 2009-2010 and yet the Product Key is invalid in 2011... there's no logic in that error when the only thing I did was bought 2 new Hard Drives and installed it into the PC (and used grounding technique) And PC was able to run on the OS that camed with Mac Book Pro which was Leopard OS to show you that why is it invalid when I previously installed to 2 previous Hard Drives and just want to expand from two 80GB HDD to two 500GB HDD and was able to install successfully... (The hard drives I mean) but when I install into a new hard drive it would only give me Invalid Product Key.
But um.... the Windows XP Professional version I have is both a Ver 2002 and CD shows it has 2 CD's a SP2 and SP3 inside the box... So I don't see that option in this forum...?
