Action Pack media requires activation. Volume License (VL) media does not.
If you purchased a VL key that explains why it doesn't work. But you should be able to 'upgrade' the previous install with the VL media and key.

Hi, Last week a collegue of mine installed a server using one of our action pack CD's and installation key (I know, I know). Luckily he didnt activate the install. I have now kicked him around the car park, and I have purchased a 2008 server standard key, to change the old key to the new one. I know this has been covered before but the new key wont be acepted, I have been clickin the activate/ phone customer support/ enter new key - but it just says invalid key. Is this because he used Action Pack media? Can I get round this without having to reinstall the server?
