problem with xp

Ok, windows xp say my key isn't a real key. I do have a real key I know works
but now that windows don't like the key that's in it is there any way to replace
the key that's in it with the key I know is a good key?
Or do I have to reformat and start over again?

Motherboard but I have the sticker on the case
The install ID is generated by using codes on the mobo, vid card, hdd, etc and then creating this long string of characters.
Your key is then linked to this Install ID. Your ID is now different, because of the mobo change.
Click the activation link in Windows, call the phone number listed, and punch in the code that is generated.. it will give you a new code back and you will be good to go.
Yes, call MS.
