Solved Giving a fake key from Microsoft.
I was giving a fake key from Microsoft employe. He had me do a full clean install of windows. When I finished I learned that the product key he gave me was being used on another computer. I contacted him again and he just sent me over to another employee. This employee told me they could not help me. What do I do. Now I have a version of windows on my computer that does not even work. And Microsoft keeps telling me they can not help me.
Please help me!! I have a Windows 8 pro with media pack upgrade key. But it keeps telling me it will not work with this version of windows.
My current version of windows is windows 8 pro build 9200.
