richcornucopia Posted January 10, 2006 CID Share Posted January 10, 2006 You probably have an illegal, and blacklisted product key. If you actually paid for this xp sp2 disk type it in one more time and verify it is correct if it still doesn't work, then call up microsoft and ask for help installing it, and tell them where you bought it from.
