So I built my computer yesterday. I used a Microsoft Windows 8 Reinstallation dvd that ibuypower provided me. The product key I used the same key that was used on my ibuypower pc.
It installed, but today it said I need to activate windows 8. It said that the key was already in used.

Where can I get a new product key only?
Not dvd, just product key.
 
Solution
One product key = one computer. You will need a new (additional) license for the second system. You can purchase directly from MS at:

http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/buy

CAUTION: Be very wary of the many "product key sites" that litter the 'Net. Most are not legitimate nor trustworthy and are likely to sell you something you can't use properly, or technically legally.

The computer I bought from ibuypower already had the product key inside it. I tried using the same product key to my new computer and it installed. A day later it says the prodcut key is already used. use a new one.
