I purchased a new OEM version of Windows XP Home Edition. It came with a product key certification and appears to be a genuine copy of XP. I installed it on my iMac under Mac OS Leopard. The software installed with no problem, but failed online activation with "UNAUTHORIZED PRODUCT KEY'. The telephone approach also did not work. I checked it with the Genuine MS Software tool, the key provided on the certificate matches that in the installed software. Has this key already been used or is this copy of the OS counterfeit? Here are the results of MGA Diagnostics:
