    You can also try calling Microsoft Support. Your COA key should state what version of Windows you have, use the disk that fits the profile, install it again and contact Microsoft online support. They will walk you through a new key, and your old key will be deactivated.

    cheers ...

    MS won't help you - its an OEM key and the key doesn't actually mean anything to anyone other than Gateway.
