I recently got a new SSD, and I installed Windows to it. (I only have a key, not a Windows disc) Well, I deactivated the key on the old hard drive. It says Windows isn't genuine like it's supposed to. Now when I go to activate Windows on my SSD, it says I can't use the key. Is there any way I can fix this?

Then call and do that. It will ask for a series of 6 digit segments. Read or punch them into the phone.
It will then read a series back. You plug those into the specific boxes onscreen.
It will probably then ask "How many computers is this installed on?"

After that, it should be activated.

The key is valid, I bought it. It does give me the option to the phone robot. I freshly installed Windows from their ISO onto the SSD.

I didn't pirate it. I bought the upgrade key from Microsoft.
