ASF! DELL DM051Above is my report. Today, I downloaded MS service pack 2 merely to be able to print individual Outlook email pages instead of odd or even pages. When my computer rebooted it had this message: The Windows Vista Home Premium Product key you typed is invalid for activation. It then gives me three choices: 1) Access your computer with reduced functionality 2) Type a different product key 3) Contact Dell to help resolve this problem.
The computer was working fine prior to downloading SP2 and I had not typed in a key for quite a while. I can only access the internet, but nothing else in the computer.
I tried to type in the key, but it keeps saying that the characters are invalid.
Please help.

According to the report, the service pack isn't actually installed - you're still at the base RTM release level.
(which is why the system is locking you out - in SP2 the Reduced Functionality Mode is a lot less restrictive)
You should be able to boot from the XP CD, and reinstall from there - remember that it will reformat the drive, so back up first!

I'm afraid that your installation appears to be counterfeit.
The installed Product Key - (ending B9HD2) is an OEM_SLP Key from a Dell computer - but your computer was manufactured 6 months before Vista was released, and so cannot possibly support such a Key.
It's likely that installing the Service Pack removed the hack (an Activation Exploit) that was holding the installation together.
Is there a COA sticker on the case? If so, for what version and edition of Windows is it valid? (I suspect Windows XP Home)
How did you acquire this machine? (How long ago?)

Noel, Thanks for writing. I have a Dell laptop that came with Vista. I also have Dell desktop that came with XP (this is the one with problems). About a month ago, I heard that XP was not going to be supported any longer so I changed both to Vista, using the Vista that came with the laptop. The desktop has worked fine until I tried to add the service pack. I purchased both computers new.Thursday, October 24, 2013 8:03 PM

That's the cause of the problem, then - you cannot run an OEM install of Vista on a machine which shipped with XP.
OEM Licenses are restricted to use on the same machine on which they shipped, and cannot be transferred.
XP will be supported until April next year - after which it will still work happily, but will simply not receive any more updates whatever from Microsoft (for XP - I'm not certain about updates for things like Office and MSE)
If you want to run Vista or Win7 on that machine you will need to purchase an Upgrade license to be able to activate it - licenses for both systems are in short supply, since MS stopped selling Vista licenses in 2009, and Win7 licenses in 2012 (although they did run on a bit with Win7, they created no new retail licenses after the release of Windows 8)
You need to reformat and reinstall the XP on this machine - or use a legitimate upgrade or full license.

Noel,
Again thanks for your information. It seems odd that it worked very well up to the service pack install.
I will go ahead and switch back to XP for now so I can use my computer. When I put the XP disk in nothing happens because Windows is shut down except for "limited use". Do you know how I can reinstall XP in this condition?
