OEM is a different key than retail, CD you're using maybe the issue?
Same problem may be with the key readers that they don't reverse the key
properly.

Here's an interesting thing. I've been fighting with a machine that has
XP Pro on it, and the COA is lost. I pulled the COA out with Keyfinder
and got one key. It didn't work with either the upgrade CD or the full
version CD. Then I tried ViewKeyXP - totally different key...that still
doesn't work. I'm thinking none of these programs are worth squat.
