Default Product key already being used

This is the first time that I have tried to use the key for Vista beta2 and
while trying to activate it tells me that this key is in use I have not used
it before or given it to any one. Can someone correct this?

Default RE: Product key already being used

How about you change the product key being used. If you right click on
"computer" will find a control to change the product key being used. You can
get another key from www.microsoft.com/windowsvista by using another
www.hotmail.com account that you can create.

I hope this helps.

It may actually work to select change product key but enter the old one
anyway.
