Invalid Product Key

When I enter the product key on the bottom of my Gateway computer to validate my Windows Vista Home Premium, I get a message say it is invalid. I ran a diagnostics:

Hello kln9qd,
Your Diagnostic Report shows Vista as Genuine and I don't see any Vista Activation or Validation related problems. I do, however, see that you have a trial version of Office installed. When a trial version of Office comes to the end of it's trial period, a windows will pop-up asking for a Product Key
Computer manufacturers often install a trial version of Microsoft Office. If you are getting a prompt to type in a Product Key when opening a Microsoft Office program, it is likely the trial period is over and you'll need to purchase a license (product key) for Microsoft Office.The product key affixed to your computer is for Windows Vista (the operating system) and not for Microsoft Office. Please review the following:
