    Okay.
    I have a computer here which hasn't had any updates done by Windows in a long time.
    I tried to do it and it asked me to pass validation.
    When I tried, it failed validation.
    I checked the first issue that could be the problem and this is it:

    The last five digits the website reported were 3TW6T.
    The last five digits on my computer's cerificate of authenticity is 3W4MB...

    Now when I enter the "correct" product key into the "Windows Product Key Update Tool" program, I get the following error:

    What should I do?
    I checked it over five million times. No mistakes.

    Just call Microsoft and explain the problem. You may be on hold for a while, but I have always gotten things straightened out after some time.

    Hey.

    I was trying to do this, but I didn't have any luck finding the phone number for Microsoft Support :(...
