Just got message that windows won't validate widows?

Question
-
Hello and i'm new to these forums as this is the first real problem that i have had.
For some strange reason after many years of having Windows XP on this laptop it says that my Volume License key is blocked.This is the first time i have seen this.
This laptop along with my other 2 computers have been "hand me downs" from my father and all 3 have windows XP on them.My other 2 computers are working just fine,but this one seems to have all of a sudden started having this problem.
I read in another thread you guys needed the infoposted in it's own thread so you could see what is going on.
Here is the info...

Yes - you have Professional installed, which is why you can't use the Home Product Key on the COA Sticker.
You need to do a clean reinstall with an XP Home OEM disk - it doesn't matter which SP level, as you can always install the SP's afterwards (preferably using the offline installers before allowing Windows updates to get it fully up-to-date.

I just noticed something.I was looking on the bottom of my laptop and seen that the Product key listed in the Validation info does not match the Product key that is on the bottom of my computer.I'm stumped as to why they are not matching as i've never messed with this or know how to.
Could this be why i am having this problem?If so is there a way i can fix this myself?

Volume License Keys are only sold to organisations for use in their own machines - the Key on the bottom of the laptop is the one that was issued by the manufacturer of the machine, and is the one for which the machine is licensed (the COA SLP Key)A Volume License Key becomes blocked for a number of reasons - the two major ones are that either the owner of the key no longer needs it, so requests MS to block it, or the Key is leaked to the internet and MS block it.For what version (Win 98/ME/XP) and edition (Home/Pro) of Windows is the Key valid?You may be able to acquire recovery disks for your laptop from the manufacturer for a fee - or you could reinstall using the correct OEM System Builder disk, if you can find a friend who has one.

The Version i have is Windows XP Home Edition.
It does have the sticker on the bottom with proof of license certificate of authenticity.
I tried using the Windows Product Key updating tool and it didn't accept the Product Key that is on the bottom of my laptop.
i don't know what else to do except look online to see if i can get the recovery disks.I don't think i have a OEM System Builder disk,but i'll have to look.

I just looked in my system properties and it says That i have Microsoft Windows XP Professional Version 2002 Service Pack 3.
Sorry to keep posting.I'm just worried that my laptop,which i use quite a bit, is going to be useless pretty soon.
