Hey all

After download sertvice pack 1 for win 2003 server, i tried to install it but failed, and this message arise
"the product key used to install windows may not be valid."

I read about the matter and settle that the problem from windows product ID number.. and i can't change this ID.

Anyone have solution please...

call the Microsoft's customer support or your retailer.

I have a solution, but I doubt you'll like or use it.
Use... Linux :D :D :D
Try Ubuntu server if your situation allows.

Or..Weirdan's idea works too :(
