While legally purchasing Windows XP Pro I now find that I have installed on my machine probably a cloned version. I will have words with my techie.

My legal copy of Windows has an authenticity certificate "Windows A XP Professional 1-2CPU OEM Product"
A couple questions. Will I be able to use the Key Update Tool to change the product key with this version now installed on my machine?
I have once attempted to use the Key Update Tool and though allowing me past the window for entering the legal product key a pop-out came out stating that a system restore point was not able to be established and that proceeding further might be a risk. I did not risk. So, what is the preparatory regime to be followed to prepare the machine before running the Key Update Tool?
Help is appreciated.
