why do u want to change ur key?
original legal keys won´t be changed for installing SP1/2!

In my opinion CD-Key change is not legal, so please don´t posts and guides here.
But there is a way to change to Product Key, maybe you will do this.

to switch key ?
there are numberous szenarios when this is sensefull ... e.g. due to your work you got winXP on your notebook ... one day you get fired and don't earn any license anymore but you do not want to complete reinstall windows so you go buy it ... insert new key and ready ...
or see that illegal copies floating ebay got a real one ... now reinstall windows ?
