A few weeks ago I had the same problem on my server (although in my case it IS genuine Windows as I've got the COA on the case). Methinks the bloke I bought the box from used the s/n for other PCs

I've had that problem at work, ring microsoft and they can normally give you another activation code so they cant keep using your one if theyve written it down.

Try this: http://www.petri.co.il/change_the_serial_in_windows_xp.htm

It says SP1 but it always worked on SP2 for me.

That article is an exact copy of one in the Windows Help Centre thingy.
